1880-O NGC MS-62 PQ Cameo Semi-PL (Shot MS-63 PL?) -- Photos

Stuart

I purchased this Semi-PL Cameo 1880-O about a year ago as an NGC MS-62. The seller and I both agreed that it was probably undergraded, and is obviously very premium quality for the grade.

The coin looks at least MS-63 to me.. What do you think ??

Stuart,

From the contrast between the fields and devices, it looks like a strong PL candidate. Hard to tell from the pics as to the grade, 62 - 63 looks about right. Nice find if it is a PL.

Crack it out and send to PCGS.

Here is a PCGS MS63:

Here are some larger scale photos which may give you a better look at the detail of the coin:

Looks decent, but not a pl candidate.

From the pic's the coin looks good. Something that would have to be judged in hand though.

This is a tougher date to get into 3 and 4 holders, as the value really jumps with this date in those grades.

My favorite Morgan dollar date. First Morgan I ever owned was an 1880-O that I purchased off a bid board for $65 when I was in high school. That was big dough back then. The coin eventually slabbed ms/62 and even though dipped once or twice in it's history, it will always be a keeper for me.

Don't care much for Morgan's, but I can't seem to pass up purchasing 1880-O's.

Is there any marks in the fields that would hold it back. I didn't see any in the scan which is unusual for a lower grade pl.
