My morgan dollar.

Got this one a few years ago from my uncle. How you like it?

She's a beautiful first year Morgan! Nice strike and luster. I'd grade her MS63.

BTW, is it an 8TF, 7TF, 7/8TF, CC, or S?

I say MS61 unless the reverse is nicer than the obverse.

63 is kind of pushing it, it has a lot of cheek and field damage.

Thanks all! In case your wondering, the yellow is not yellow toning, its the lighting. I don't have the money to buy a special set up for my coin photo's, so I normally do them outside in the bright arizona sunlight. But right now it's nightime, so I used my halogen light. That's why it looks yellow. I took a picture of the other side too. Let me see if I can find it


Thanks to my horrible photo-taking ability the quality is a tad poor.

I'll have to agree. I looked at my 1885-CC PCGS MS61 and my 1879-O PCGS MS61, and I would revise my MS63 guess to MS61.

BTW, it's hard to tell, but the reverse looks like the 7TF variety.

Try playing with the White Balance in the camera's menu. You might have to change something like Photo Settings to Manual rather than automatic, that way you can change the White Balance yourself.
