Should I give this Morgan as a birthday present or not?

My neighbor who is a close friend collects US coinage, albeit rather haphazardly.
For his birthday I wanted to get him a reasonably inexpensive (b'day present values set by wives) Morgan dollar, preferably slabbed.
I found this one and thought he'd like it.
The more I look at it though, it's obvious that it's been dipped (how else could it be pure white while being almost 130 years old).
Should I buy unslabbed and natural? I would have preferred a PCGS slab but they had none.
Yes, I forgot the images, here they are:

Yeah, but with a $25 limit what am I going to get that's any better?
