Hard for me to tell from coins that are scanned.Given the condition I would not pay much more than melt value which is around $32.00

It is either cleaned, fake, or a really bad photo editing job. Worth bullion only in my opinion.

I'm trying to learn how to tell if they are cleaned or not.

I did just buy 9 new morgans to go into my new orleans date set :)

When you have to ask it's probably cleaned.

There is absolutely not enough evidence in the included scans to make a conclusion about the originality of the surfaces. Y'all go ahead and make these assumptions about cleaning; each of you is one less competitor to me for the good ones which aren't imaged properly.

I am right wth Dave here. Nothing in those photo tells me one way or another in regards to if it has been cleaned. Funky toning in and of itself is NOT a slam dunk factor.

Hey, cleaned or not, the winner got it for around a buck fifty above melt, that's not bad.

Personally when the photo's are not clear enough to really see what the coins near/best impression I usually skip over the reply's as 10 others will give a wide variety of answers based all on assumption and not fact...

It did not make a difference on this coin that is for sure.
