My $7 Morgan is it a good?

<<better pics below showing the true color>>

Just bought this on Ebay this week and it came today. I'm better at judging higher grades.
Is this a good? or worse...either way it wasn't a bad deal.
thanks ahead
Tom

I'll give you $8 for it.

Based on your pictures and Photograde, it looks like an almost VG to me.

Good: Obverse: the hair above the forehead and ear will be worn smooth; Reverse: the rim will be worn down to the tops of the letters.

Very Good: Obverse: the deepest strands of hair will be visible above the forehead. The hair above the ear will be worn smooth; Reverse: Approximately one-third of the feathers will show on the eagle. The head and breast will be worn smooth.

$7 for a CC Morgan? Hmm...

<< <i>$7 for a CC Morgan? Hmm... >>

The person he bought it from most likely had horrid pictures or didn't show the reverse.If he showed the reverse there would have been a lot of people in a bidding war.

Wow!!
$7 for a 93 CC??
That's an awesome deal. Nice work.

Here's the auction for the unbelievers. It was 3 Morgans for $15 bucks. Add in the shipping it was averaged to $7 bucks a coin.
It's nice to grab a deal off Ebay once in awhile. I had to do a double take when I saw the price..

Thanks for the opinions

A search of CC would not have brought it up... only a search of *CC* would have, b/c of how it was "worded"

DennisH · March 17, 2004 7:55AM

If it isn't cleaned it's at least Good-4 and maybe Good-6. The reverse rims look too weak to make it to VG-8.

Great buy!!!!

it's cool

coachleonard · March 17, 2004 8:22AM

I was going to say "$7 for a 93 cc?!" But a couple of folks already beat me to it

Cladiator · March 17, 2004 8:24AM

right off the bat I'd say cleaned. Would a coin that old with that much wear be that bright and shiny?

Trooper · March 17, 2004 8:41AM

Gladiator and all thanks for the comments.

Here's a pic of the coin that shows it true color.

Actually that angled shot shows the coins details better......

Ebay auction >>

I figured you had to hit an incredibly low bin soon after auction start otherwise it never would have gone for that!
