This piece has sold and is on its way to its hopefully-happy-owner, so I guess its safe for a GTG, since, if it comes back, I'll still be happy! Photos are pretty much as it appears in hand. Graded ATS

    Look 62 with my eyes.

    I'll go 63. Lots of dings but nothing too distracting on the obv (or maybe hidden by toning)

    IMO that grading company can be on the loose side, wouldn't you say?

    That's a tough one. AU63 is my guess.

    I'd say 55 or maybe 58 but not MS.

    Hope I'm wrong.

    I was thinking 50 but judging by the other responses I must be way off...

    OK....let's stop the bleeding. Even looking at the pic now, I see a 55 max and FWIW, I believe the coin is accurately graded. I feel certain others would agree as well upon viewing it in hand. The coin is original and un-dipped.

    So, perhaps a bit of self-reflection is warranted and criticism is welcome. I did not juice the photo as I am for too unskilled for that. Just a plain "Auto" setting, but I did use a flash so that folks could see the underlying luster. Normally, I prefer natural lighting. Here is my description on eBay:

    **Just a nice and super original AU+ better date Morgan Dollar that has just about perfect grey dirt color, ample luster and a soft, pleasing finish. This piece has a ton of pleasing cartwheel luster under a light that testifies to its originality. Really nice.

    This is not a dipped out white coin. Instead, it is fully original with soft, muted luster until you put it under light. Then you get almost a full cartwheel under greyish toning. **

    And here it is in a holder.

    The grade seems fair and so does your description.
    Maybe people are accustomed to higher grades on here and that led to the MS guesses?

    Agree, other than I'd add three points and call it a 61.
