Perhaps my favorite Colonial - Small planchet Pine Tree Shilling

While I think it is undergraded, really doesn't make much difference as the coin is very well centered, all the devices are strong the reeding is nearly complete and the eye appeal is fantastic.

    Nice coin. B)
    Those are denticles rather than reeding.

    Lovely example.

    With a coin like that the slab grade may not make much difference. The specialists in the field will immediately see it as a very choice specimen of the coin and value it accordingly. This in not an 1881-S Morgan Dollar.
