Would like to hear everyone’s opinions, it may be interesting to see how the raw coin video influences opinions good or bad…i have a comment or two but will save that for the end…
On the reverse of the coin at the tips of the eagles wings are interesting anomalies, has anyone seen these before? they are most definitely raised on the surface and not scratches.
Unfortunately you have to follow the youtube link to watch the video, i am slowly learning how to show the video in the post!
MS65DMPL
Correctly graded i think, the 2 toned spots on the reverse are likely what kept it down a grade

    66 PL/DMPL, hard to tell.

    The wingtips are called starbursts I think. Very cool indeed!

    66 PL by photos. Video makes it look DMPL, but I think it may just be a PL.

    Looks like a 66 DMPL

    That's a fine looking Morgan ... good shot at DMPL from what I could tell in the video.

    Sure seems to be pushing 66, or maybe 66+

    It makes me think DMPL. It also makes me think 66+

    66 PL….surfaces and cheek cleaner than you typically see…still a bit hard to judge the mirrors so I hedged against dmpl

    @2windy2fish I believe YouTube shorts won’t embed (just like IG reels won’t). It has to be a normal YouTube video to work.

    Looks like a 66 to me, cameo but not sure about PL, I don't thing it's a DMPL.

    66 PL - Beautiful coin. Did you buy it raw?

  • rickoricko Posts: 98,724 ✭✭✭✭✭

    @2windy2fish... That is a real beauty of a CC Morgan... looks 66 and PL.... Nice video, though could not see the wing tip issue in it.... Cheers, RickO

  • 2windy2fish2windy2fish Posts: 833 ✭✭✭✭✭

    @Meltdown Yes, purchased raw, made the video then sent for grading
    @ricko check out the photo of the reverse and zoom in a bit!

  • 2windy2fish2windy2fish Posts: 833 ✭✭✭✭✭

    ttt for those who would may be interested in the PCGS grade

  • rickoricko Posts: 98,724 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Well... Missed it by one.... Thought 66.... Oh well, that is why I buy coins in hand or in slab. ;) Cheers, RickO

    Missed this post, but had I guessed I would have said a minimum of 66 with a cheek like that!
    Possibly 67..
