I always think "guess the grades" are a lot of fun. What say you on this new purchase?

I appreciate your comments both good and bad!

Well, I thought this was by pictures and in hand, every bit of MS-66. I love the creamy skin and the light purplish toning brought on by the no line fattie. I think I have fallen in love with the "skin" if that makes any sense to you.

that's a hard picture to grade off of - but I'll go with 64 due to the chatter on the neck

Attractive! 64? I'm seeing that there are probably lots of short hairline-type marks, especially on the tip of the bust.

MS 65

But hard to really tell from pics posted on the board. It is a nice coin but what do I know about
1879 S Morgans I only have a few of them.

BustHalfBrian · January 21, 2013 7:16AM

Not sure what era holder it's in, but by today's standards, it's MS65

MS 66 today, although the type of toning makes it look like it's in an old no-line fatty, so the holder may say MS 65.

coinsarefun · January 21, 2013 12:29PM

MS65 very pretty

Pokermandude · January 21, 2013 12:35PM

65+, darn near 66 IMO

MS65. The only imperfections I could see on there are the few little scratches on the neck, and the (very) slight wear on the breast feathers. Otherwise, looks wonderful- very nice luster.
