A new Morgan purchase

I purchased a very nice 1921 DMPL. I took a bunch of images today trying to get the right shots. I finally got a decent image. I wanted to post it so I could share it with you guys. I know it has a couple of zingers on the cheek but overall its a very nice coin.
The mirrors a very clear and deep. I think the cameo is also pretty nice. This is #2 for DMPL's in my collection.

The 21 is a difficult find in DMPL. Is the coin in a PCGS holder?
Nice Morgan
I'm afraid that cheek hit will hurt the grade. Not sure it's DMPL either, but good luck.
I don’t think it’s a DMPL. I’ve submitted a Morgan before that I thought might be a DMPL and they didn’t even grade it as a PL. The coin shown looks much less like a DMPL than the one I submitted so that’s why I’m saying this.

Unusual look for a 1921 Morgan.
I bet it looks better in hand than your photos.

Yes it's a tough one to image. I imagine that's why pcgs TV's look different than the coin. They don't show reflection. Fortunately I do have slabbed coins I can use for comparison sake.
I do agree with you as being unusual look for a 1921. The strike is very very strong and honestly no polish lines. The surfaces are like water.
I like this for a DMPL. If I do decide to sell it one day I should have it slabbed. Otherwise I have my raw coins and my slabbed coins.
As a collector this is a great place to share our coins!
Nice reflectivity but looks a bit rough otherwise. In hand man. When you have to tilt coins to show the surface ...........usually they don't look like that in hand

Nice for a '21
Collector, occasional seller
I'm dying to see the results of this when you send it in to PCGS. Get it in!
@Watchtower.... Very nice acquisition.... Congrats on a nice coin. Cheers, RickO
Tough from a few pictures to tell if the coin is DMPL. I suspect if the coin truly was a DMPL it would be slabbed especially if purchased from a dealer. I suppose it’s possible to find an ungraded one if someone has a big pile of ungraded individual Morgans for sale.
Send it for grading. One reason is to protect it. The other is to protect it.
