....a slabbed MS67 Morgan that they believe should be in a MS68 slab instead?

If so, please post a pic.

Thanks much.

    How about just some really solid 67's? Puffy cheeks, clean fields, great luster and strike.........

    How about a 68 I think should be in a 69?

    How about a coin in a nice Capital holder that has a chance?

    dragon, your pic is a bit too washed out for me to really get a feel for that one.......got any other pics of it?
    That cheek does look to be puffy.....
    But is that residue in the fields?
  • dragondragon Posts: 4,548 ✭✭
    Unfortunately that's the best my cheapo scanner can do. It's not residue at all, just really super deep mirror fields with a bit of haze that the scanner makes look much worse.

    Washed out or not, that coin is giving me wood.

    Those 2 coins are top of the line. Wow...

    Best I have is 66 so I'm disqualified from this match.

    Maybe Sunnywood has a few that fit the OP's question?

    It's better than some 68's I've seen, but not better than most. Would be a low end 68...but would be easier to sell as a low end 68 than a high end 67!image

    I guess we really are narrowing this search down to an 81-S or 80-S, maybe even a 79-S, as I've seen a few of those in spectacular condition...

    ...you got me tahoe, those are really puffy! image


    greg, your piece has a nice look...I also appreciate the subtle antique tones....similar to the toning acquired from years in an old NGC or ANA slab....just a tad less purplish.

    My 67 is a 79S that is solid for the grade. On the posted 68 are the scratches in the obverse field on the coin or the plastic?
