Guess the grade of this CC Morgan

Just got this back and boy was I surprised.

Newcomp103 · October 31, 2007 4:20AM

Good surprised or bad??? I would call it a 62

The grade is not relevant. There are so many nice ones on the market, the only thing that matters with a not-so-nice generic example like this one is price compared to similar examples.

MS64

mustanggt · October 31, 2007 4:23AM

63 or 64

beartracks42 · October 31, 2007 4:24AM

Looks like a 63, but I'll guess they gave it a 64?

Goldbully · October 31, 2007 4:25AM

MS64

skeeterhawk · October 31, 2007 4:25AM

MS61 or MS62.......just a guess

CarsonCityGold · October 31, 2007 4:27AM

How did you "just" get that back in that holder?? Series# and coin # on holder

robec · October 31, 2007 4:31AM

MS64 chance for 5.

guitarwes · October 31, 2007 4:35AM

really 62/shot 3

PCGS 64

If the PCGS grade is this, it would be a surprise, to me at least.

dorkkarl · October 31, 2007 4:37AM

real grade = ms-64
slabbed grade = ms-65

I enlarged the image, took a good look, and I think it's a solid 64. Would not be surprised if the (new?) grade is 65. Series & Coin holder not used for a couple years...

tahoe98 · October 31, 2007 4:39AM

it's a 64.............................the surprise is they gave it a 66..............

quickwing · October 31, 2007 4:59AM

dork and I see it alike:

<< <i>real grade = ms-64 >>

<< <i>slabbed grade = ms-65 >>

(neck & chin get minus)

Those are some mighty light scruffs on that obverse. I'd say you were pleasantly surprised with
a 66.

cc ms 63 off of EBAY

Looks like a 63.5, so I think they gave it a 64. Personally, I think the coin is solid for a 63, but doesn't quite make the 64 grade.

While the abrasions on the cheek aren't deep, they are wide and distracting. It looks (from the photo) that the luster is slightly subued and the strike is just a bit above aberage, the color on the coin is uneven also like I have seen on poorly rinsed dipped coins.
Gee, sorry for being so hard on your coin here. I'd be surprised if it graded higher than a MS63, and would say you were surprised it was only a MS62?

Sorry for the tough analysis, but I'm that way with my own coins too.

have one very similiar - MS 64

UtahCoin · October 31, 2007 5:42AM

Thanks for all the opinions! This got mixed up with a bunch of CC dollars that I recently had graded, I guess this particular one wasn't that new. Some ask why have a coin like this graded? I have found that selling coins like this raw on ebay doesn't work for me. People assume that if it's not in a holder, it must have something wrong with it.

I really thought this would go 64 (I've seen worse in 65 holders). I was surprised that it only got a 63, perhaps the color had something to do with it. My most recent submission wasn't a total waste as I sent a raw 1995 DDO Lincoln that came back 67 Red. There again, only slabed it to sell it.

Thanks for the input!

JJM · October 31, 2007 7:34AM

63 seems bout right, cheek scrape kills it for me on morgans

TorinoCobra71 · October 31, 2007 7:52AM

62.

ricko · October 31, 2007 9:56AM

If not for the scrape, probably a 65... too bad, nice coin. Cheers, RickO
