I likes it, I would say this one is about a MS-64 with a definite weak strike

Thanks Bryan,
I was starting to think no one was going to have the intestinal fortitude to grade the O's anymore.Unfortunatly or Fortunatly (for me cause I like em ) their always going to be out there and the more we look at and grade them the better we will all become at it.

I'll take a shot at it. I'll say ms63 shot 64 on a good day. This coin has that nice original skin look to it, I like it!

BTW TLS5933, when I first started collecting Morgans my first two coins were an 1889-0 and an 1892-0, both entombed in ngc plastic and graded ms64. My goal was to put together an 0-mint date set.

I think MS-63

I cant see why anyone would collect the Morgan series of coins, especially the O mints !! My advice stop buying them !!

Yep, the O's are my favorite.They offer a challange the other Morgans don't.I guess all us Morgan collectors have our own favorites.Most of my Morgans are the O's.

I'd rather larger pics, but you got the luster nicely represented. I think the consensus is right with this one. MS63, but I could go higher or lower with larger pics of the obverse.

Dang, that's a beat strike.

64 is a possibility, but this year was known for decent strikes, so I doubt it.

In both pics, I saw the 2 as an 8 and thought you'd mistyped. 1892-O Morgans are notorious for weak strikes; yours is not bad for the date and more understandably MS64. 1898-O's, which I thought the coin actually was, are better known for good strikes.
