    I like it as an MS61... However, if those are hairlines on the obverse, they may have 'details - cleaned' it.... Cheers, RickO

    Gold is soft. I think a 58 might have more abrasions. I say 62 or 63,

    I don't think I've had a Proof Morgan in over 10 years. I do plan to buy one that speaks to me as a type coin at some point.
