Another new Morgan toner purchase...

anablepanablep Posts: 5,137 ✭✭✭✭✭
Got this one at the local coin show today in NY...

Not many dealers today. They must be on holiday.

My images are somewhat poor, so please excuse the lack of luster, I shot with low light rather hastily...

Thanks for looking & for your opinions...

Always looking for attractive rim toned Morgan and Peace dollars in PCGS or (older) ANA/ANACS holders!

    I like it!


    .....but don't ask people here to guess the grade, 'cause they'll likely guess 62. image

    62 seems to be a popular "fall back grade" for those who hazard a guess without really trying!

    well from what I am seeing I would say I bet it looks great in hand nice album type tone, it sure looks 64 to me from what I can see.
    I like the look very much.

    I doubt it. The pics ore more detailed and the lighting is much better than the previous thread you speak of..

    I would guess a strong 64 or 65....

    64 maybe 65. Nice rim toning!
    I'm going with 65, that's my final answer.

  • i like it. It's not a rainbow dazzler, but it is obviously NT and original.

    You are correct about that, but I don't go for that look in my Morgans.

    Nice pickup!
    MS66 taste on an MS63 budget.

    I would send that in and get one of those purdy stickers...image
  • gripgrip Posts: 9,962 ✭✭✭✭✭
    What i can tell it looks like an easy upgrade.

    That is a clean lookin' 64. image

    Just because it's in a rattler, doesn't guarantee that...

    It is a possibility, but I don't know if the luster is there on the obverse.

    Reverse has plenty of luster...

    I would agree 100% if the next grade had a large $ amount.I wouldn't send it in.
    Enjoy it as it is ,in the old holder.
