I had to have it NEWP CC

morgansforever

I knew it when I saw it inside the glass case. It was booming with luster sitting in that black tray.
Before I put my 5x Bausch & Lomb to it, I knew it was gonna be a beauty. I could see the clashes on the reverse and the neck of Liberty,
it was clean n white, I wasn't gonna let it go. My heart started to race as I looked it over, this was a near gem and it's raw.
I felt confident and empowered, as I knew this was near Gem. The dealer looked at and offered me a price I couldn't refuse. I purchased it without questioning or haggling. Then I raced home to shoot it, I love U.S. coinage.
I feel it's a solid 63, perhaps a 4. How about you?

As usual....killer images, great pickup and IMO a 64..... Congrats!

Unless the images are hiding something I cannot see that going less than a 65 with 66 a real possiblity, very nice.

Obverse: 64+
Reverse: 66
Net: 65

Nice coin!

If that's really what it looks like in hand (if the photos aren't hiding any serious bagmarks), I could see this in a 65 holder.

Other than the to hits to the bottom jaw, the cheek isn't to bad.
The reverse is tough to find anything, besides the die polish lines below the viewers left wing and the clashing, which I like.
It's your typical white clean CC IMO.

EDIT: Unfortunately, the area in front of Liberty's nose appears to be a thumb print.
I may give it a bath in Acetone, probably will.

Oh, get it in acetone and see if you can get that fingerprint of the face of Miss Lib.

In Acetone as I write this, right next to the bon fire, on a cool October evening

Is it NT if the glass dish with the CC at the bottom goes up in flames?

Could even be a 65!

Kidding, it's safely sitting on the work bench in the shed for a couple hours.

lol... I figured you were kidding, I mean who would risk loosing a Gem coin like that in an acetone-induced fire! I have a really nice 1971 Eisenhower with a finger print on it, how to I get it off without stripping luster? Help

65 easy

SeattleSlammer

At least gem.

SkyMan

I like that!

I don't collect Morgans. But I have to say that is a nice looking coin!

BTW, you take great pictures!

63, maybe a 64?? Man, I want to buy raw coins from you. The obverse will probably limit it to 64 but I could easily see it in a gem holder. The reverse is just amazing 66+.
