    Looks fine, but that indirect lighting makes judging a potential cleaning impossible. I don't have a problem with a F-12 and think the downside would be VG-10.

    I'm in the VG-8 opinion and agree it's impossible to tell if the coin will be dubbed cleaned from that pic!

    It has not been cleaned. The pic makes it worse than it is.

    I unfortunately think the O.P is trying to build up his post count more than actually adding to this forum. I wonder why the forum operators have not spoken to him yet!

    I would go VG8 and price it out around $130-$150. If problem Free.

    Cleaned.....gennie holder. Do some homework and tell US what YOU think it will grade.

    Here we go again....someone else that can't grade, but wants to be told what something grades so they can feel like they know how to grade when 'a friends collection over the years' coins are being ripped, er, bought. If you bought that one as problem free, looks like you'll lose your pants this time if you plan to flip it (to go with your lost shirt).

    Still won't answer Mitch's/Wondercoin's question, huh?
    I'll come up with something.

    The photos make it look "brighter" then it really is. It might of been cleaned, but it's an old cleaning. I still think it should grade problem free.

    A fair price is a price YOU come up with, through learning. Learn more, because if you need to ask that question, you should probably read and listen alot more, post alot less, and not try to be someone or something you aren't....just being plain lazy if you have to ask what to offer. You knew what to offer for the HTT you lost your shirt on, why can't you figure this one out, or do you need to be told if it's cleaned or not?
    I'll come up with something.

    Has the OP learned how to tone coins, as he asked in this thread (with an emphasis on #2), from the site he was suspended from? Another coin doctor in the making. He's allowed back there, so hopefully.....

    As said before, it's much darker in hand. If it's cleaned, it's an old one.

    Looks cleaned, perhaps not recently but cleaning has been going on for a long, long time.

    If you think it will grade problem-free, then why are you ask us for our opinion? Whip out the dollars and get it graded yourself. You keep wanting free advice to become some sort of a dealer, but you really need to invest your money wisely and learn first.

    You keep asking us for help. I offered you some help via PM, but you have ignored my PM to you. Not even so much as a thank you note from you.

    You are certainly a real winner.

    Thanks...and for the record, bag marks ARE damage.

    Here is a PCGS slabbed morgan dollar. Graded UNC Details- Surface Damage. The damage is from heavy bag marks.

    Now while a few bag marks won't hurt anything, send in a Morgan with a ton of deep bag marks, and it will come back body bagged.

    nice quarter detecto, you should submit it in to pcgs for slabbing. after you buy it, but before you sell it.

    "I still think it should grade problem free."

    If you can work that out, you can make an offer estimate.

    Again, you are incorrect. A "ton of bag marks", as you call it, will not come back in a body bag. It might come back in an MS60 holder. The slab you show is for some reason (e.g. surface damage) other than excessive bag marks. Again, a coin with excessive bag marks will grade at the very minimal end of MS (if it is UNC).

    Don't forget, invest in books, coin facts, or some other educational material, because you certainly need it.

    Will it grade. --> Not at PCGS, IMO.
    What's the grade --> VG details, cleaned, net G.
    What would be a fair price to pay -> About $75, IMO.

    Really? You sound very sure of yourself.

    Pray tell, how many Morgans have you sent in for grading?

    Just curious....Mike

    If I, still a "beginner" to coin collecting, could tell that this one's been cleaned at some point in its history, it's not problem-free. You know how some coins with undergraded holders (i.e., an MS-63 coin in an MS-60 holder) tend to fetch the MS-63 premiums? The opposite is true. Even if PCGS/NGC/ANACS/whatever company did slab it, and by the miniscule chance you got it slabbed "problem free," I don't know if any serious collector would pay that premium for it.

    Instead of paying to have it slabbed, perhaps you should pay for a guide on counterfeits, altered coins, cleaned coins, etc. Or, for free, you can just check out these sources at your library. No offense, I feel rather weird telling this to someone who's racked up 3200 posts on another forum. image
