david29 Valued Member United States 432 Posts	Posted 01/24/2011 04:38 am I am going to say MS 61, just because of the marks on her neck and throat area. Report this Post to the Staff

chuckpb New Member United States 22 Posts	Posted 01/24/2011 11:09 am I appreciate your comments...When I first got the coin and did a little research online, I was thinking that it would fall under AU. I am very pleased that I joined this community. I am getting more helpful tips and comments in one post/visit, than I would get in countless hours spent browsing the web.

Las_Vegas_Larry Pillar of the Community United States 817 Posts	Posted 01/24/2011 4:16 pm Considering O M/M weak strikes and contact marks in the face, neck, field & rim I would say MS63/64. Report this Post to the Staff

fenton Pillar of the Community United States 4989 Posts	Posted 01/24/2011 5:18 pm I can't quite justify 63/64 for this one due to somewhat flat obverse luster, large concentration of small abrasions on the cheek and fields (not much individually but in total they cover most of the surface), and some obverse strike weakness. If the coin were similarly marked and had blazing luster, definitely a slam dunk 63 with 64 potential. As photographed, however, don't think I can really go higher than 61/62.

1893S Pillar of the Community United States 1554 Posts	Posted 01/24/2011 10:57 pm Very nice! The 1884O Morgans generally had real good luster but the strike wasn't very good. If your coins has good cartwheel/luster it's a MS63/64 the way I see it.... Report this Post to the Staff
