Grade/Rate these 8 1898-O Morgans (large post)

PrethenPrethen Posts: 3,461 ✭✭✭
I recently acquired a handful of BU 1898-O Morgans. The strikes aren't fantastic, but most have fairly nice luster. I will eventually put all of these up for sale, but I'd love to get your opinions as to grade and how you rate them for eye appeal. Which is the best/worst? I think these fall into the MS61-64 range with most in between, but Morgans are not my specialty.

Also, I realize that the VAM is probably without interest...what VAM does it appear? The "O" appears high and there doesn't appear to be any doubling of and of the date digits.

Finally, what do you think these should be selling for?

Thanks!

    they look like ms61 to ms63,

    perhaps one will make ms64,

    nice toning though!

    I see them as MS60 to MS63 as well and also maybe one MS64 on a good day.

    I agree with the assessments thus far. Yeah, I'd say optimistically one might make 64. I initially didn't think that any were truly so repugnant to make a 60 grade though.
