    Beautiful, the 79-S I'm not a big fan of. Seems to have a little strange wear to me in the hair?

    Just my 2 cents, beautiful overall though, good luck with the grades!

    I generally don't like Morgans, but I can recognize great quality when I see it. Those ones are of such quality image

    1881-S: MS65. I'd give it a higher grading, but those hits on the neck are pretty obvious. If such marks were to be overlooked, I suspect the coin would fetch an even higher grade- notice how well struck the eagle's talons are.

    1879-S: MS65-MS66. Same as above, but the hits on the neck are just slightly more subtle.

    1879-S (second one): MS64. Generally very well struck, with clean fields, but the rims are badly hit- and it shows. That black spot at the top of the obverse distracts the viewer as well.

    1878-S: MS62 or MS63. This one's a bit trickier. It seems that the coin was well struck at some point, but unless the photos are deceiving me, there seems to be some wear on the obverse, and on the eagle's chest (reverse). Unlike the previous three, there are quite a bit of hits on it.

    If it weren't for those hits on the neck, I'd give a couple of these MS66+ or MS67's. They're gorgeous.

    Those pics make the Morgans look very clean, but where is the luster shot? They look dull and lifeless on my monitor.

    Those two 1879-S's are the "Jaw Cootie" VAM variety.

    All of them are purdy purdy.

    Not a fan of these- they really look excessively dipped and the image makes them look flat

    Try posting different images to capture the lustre

    Though they look like very clean nice coins, it's very hard to guess grades given that the lighting appears very soft and diffuse.

    Hmmmmm those look exceptionally clean. You should do well based on the pics. Be sure to follow up when the grades are in.

    That second batch of pics shows the blaze of luster!
    Nice clean coins!!!
    Now- give us the resolution and clarity of the first group of photos, with a bit of the harder lighting present in the second batch....
    And, it might be easier to guess a grade- (as if you've got nothing better to do)image

    Suffice it to say....
    My guess if you've got some super nice high grades coming your way..... Mental morphing the different photos to come up with thisimage
