My first "grade this coin" thread....

Some of you may recall I posted about a nice looking 1882-P morgan I bought on ebay for $23, well now here are some pics:





It looks good but unfortunately is not PL as it might have looked in the auction scan. It looks real good and has very few hits. I don't know where the line above the eye came from but it is not on the coin. I know there's nothing special about an 1882 P morgan but it is probably the nicest raw morgan I have!

I agree, it looks like a nice 64.

Thanks for your thoughts. I was thinking somewhere in the 64/65 range as well.

In "Coin Values", the 1882 jumps from $80.00 in 64 to $500.00 in 65. I think this one is a solid 64 with a shot (a very good shot) at grading 65. Based on what I can see from this pic, I would definately submit this one.

65.

Looking at those pictures.. a solid 64 with (IMO) a good shot at a 65. Cheers, RickO

Can't make a call from those images..

Unless this coin in hand shows something that the images posted does not...this is a solid 64...Bag marks are sometimes an issue on this date and mint mark,a little bit better than average strike, nice luster...my only concern if I was going to try for the Gem 65 grade is the heavy mark above the eye...that might cause a grader not to go any higher than 64...but I think you did well for the money you spent, you certainly won't lose...great looking coin.

Looks like a shag 63 to me.
