This is a coin I purchased recently and is my thirtieth slabbed silver dollar! I really like the coin and I hope you do too!

_ I spent all my remaining money on this coin… 😅

    Always tough with pictures, but this looks like it might have squeaked into a 66 holder. To me, it appears to be an honest 65+ that got bumped up on a good day.

    MS64, due, in large part, to the area on the reverse from the rim above the second S in STATES down to the eagle’s head.

    I don't think there is any of that, it looks like a normal early S mint morgan to me.

    I'll go with MS64 due to that stain on the reverse and that gem 82-S's are so plentiful.

    I'm going to guess it's in a 65 holder as it appears very clean, mark wise, with strong luster overall, but I don't like the staining (there's some on each side)

    True that the staining isn’t the best but honestly at least in-hand, the luster and overall look of the rest of the coin makes up for the stains, at least in my own opinion.

    65 seems reasonable. The reverse issue which has been described as a stain that extends from the S in states to the eagle’s head does raise some concern. Without seeing how the reverse luster is impacted, I will limit the high end at 65 even though I like the coin.

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
