Just picked these up on Ebay from the seller "EARLY US COINS" was wondering if anybody had seen any of his auctions? I'm usually really conservative when I buy raw Morgans so I really scrutinized his feedback and was some what impressed because he seems like a pretty good Seller. These 2 Morgans he is selling come from a Local collector "Robert French" I looked at his other auctions and they seem pretty legit. Just was curious if anybody had dealt with this seller be4. Heres some pics of the coins I bought, I know they are common but they looked nice and His site proclaims pictures not enhanced to hide anything from potential buyers....well here they are enjoy and what do you think they grade.


Thanxx

    Pictures are a bit small, but I'll say MS63 on the first and MS62 on the second.
    When in doubt, don't.

    LittleBitOEverything (Eric): I have not dealt with your specific seller, and feel that your two Morgans are probably average uncirculated coins which probably grade around MS-62 (MS-63 highest), so they would probably cost in the $30-$40 price range if certified by a major TPGS like PCGS or NGC.

    Hope that this helps...

    Hey!
    They look good. MS63ish.
    Pictures are small, but you should repost new pics when you get them!
    Good luck.

    MS 62 would be my best guess for what the major companies would currently grade these. Could be as low as 61 on the second coin.

    62/63ish. But they do appear to have good luster and are the kind I like to keep around raw. If you paid around $60 or less for the pair you did fine.
