Here is one I had graded (from a plastic holdered bank giveaway) and immediately sold as I did not even think this was attractive enough to keep. I do think it's a bit nicer than that 67 (for eye appeal) bob
This one is more attractive, but I sold it too! Same MS66 grade.

<< <i>But please no comments on whether or not it is properly graded as all you have to consider are digital images. >>
And yet you are considering purchasing it based strictly on those same images... and soliciting comments from us based strictly on the images. Well, since that's all we have, I would say if that coin were a stock, it would be the equivalent of "dead money". But if it floats your boat, who really cares what we think?

Should have framed the thread better. A prominent dealer has opined that we ought not to disagree with a TPG grade on this forum.
Just wanted to see how things went regarding opinions on the coin without beating up on the grade. Seemingly quite well.
I've never been a fan of dead people's fingerprints.
You Suck! Awarded 6/2008- 1901-O Micro O Morgan, 8/2008- 1878 VAM-123 Morgan, 9/2022 1888-O VAM-1B3 H8 Morgan | Senior Regional Representative- ANACS Coin Grading. Posted opinions on coins are my own, and are not an official ANACS opinion.
the guy is not dead as that is a newer holder and he expertly applied his thumb to the coin causing the acids in his body oils to eat through the layer of silver oxide tarnish(for Rick) that had been placed on the coin over an undisclosed amount of time.

<< <i>Judging from the photos, I am confident that is a Morgan dollar. >>
Considering all the fakes, we are off to a good start!
The more qualities observed in a coin, the more desirable that coin becomes!

i looked that one over a few times, prior to this post and imo, there looks to be a rather large cheek scuff, so i just moved along.

It doesn't do much for me and the lack of a star indicated that it didn't do much for NGC either.

<< <i>you probably shouldn't post something you're considering buying when it has a Buy It Now >>
On the screaming steals I just by them. One the fence sitters the risk is minimal.
This post though is more an exercise in whether we can opine on the coin without questioning the grade, as proposed by the Legend principles.
So far I am impressed!
<< <i>How about a counter offer for a dull-toned, fingerprinted non-CAC NGC MS67 common date Morgan. $650 if you really want it. >>
$650 or so would be a far offer for the grade. Would pay more though if I could talk my girlfriend in to picking it up in Vegas!
