I am still learning my grading. This one looks very bright in hand and my photography isnt the best....but where do you guys/gals put this morgan??

55/58? Better worse???????????

numobri · December 30, 2004 1:11PM

I'd give it a,"baggy MS60.

nwcs · December 30, 2004 1:14PM

Well, the pictures are a bit lossy from high jpeg compression but I'd say MS60/61

gemini12398 · December 30, 2004 1:20PM

I'd say 58

gemini12398 · December 30, 2004 1:22PM

There is a graffiti like mark in the right obv field for starters and I think that would bring it down from a basic 60

It's a slider, AU58.

grip · December 30, 2004 1:31PM

Ditto,Slider.

SDCollector · December 30, 2004 1:34PM

I would say 60. Looks like a nice strike for a 90-P.

tsacch · December 30, 2004 1:45PM

i was thinking 55/58 and 60 at best...........just trying to learn

Grafiti like mark??????????? what are you smoking?

Stuart · December 30, 2004 2:42PM

I agree with previous posts -- AU-58 slider.

morgannut2 · December 30, 2004 2:52PM

I agree with above and suggest you lose the plastic wrapping unless sure it has no PVC. I'd also soak it for a few minutes in running water followed by soak in acetone (or top grade clear nail polish remover) because it has that just dipped look and there might be residual acids on the incised areas that will turn ugly brown.

K6AZ · December 30, 2004 2:54PM

Please, you can't be suggesting someone dip a coin in ANY type of nail polish remover? Coins should only be dipped in 100% pure industrial grade acetone.

doop · December 30, 2004 2:59PM

It's an MS61

tsacch · December 30, 2004 9:40PM

she was a very very nasty brown with crud all over her and no luster peaking through, obv and rev. I did an ms70 50% dip to remove loose dirt and water rinse....then a regular dip for 2 seconds followed by water for one minute followed by pure acetone x 3 dips........

I bought it for $10 and wanted to dip it for my own experience to see what it would look like compared to other non dipped white-ish coins.......not just go by word of mouth or what others say is dipped or not.

its in a 2 x 2 flip.....not plastic wrap.

Betta285 · December 30, 2004 9:44PM

60

Newkid · December 30, 2004 11:21PM

Wouldn`t make a 63. maybe 62.

SilverDollarMan · December 31, 2004 12:23AM

60 on ob, 63 on rev

DennisH · December 31, 2004 1:16AM

Looks MS61ish in pictures.

TUMUSS · December 31, 2004 1:17AM

62

kryptonitecomics · December 31, 2004 1:24AM

MS60

RVDavis · December 31, 2004 1:35AM

It looks like it has a bit of wear on the eagle and Liberty's cheek so I say slider AU58. Still learning myself though

anablep · December 31, 2004 1:38AM

MS61 at best.
Not bad looking by your scans.

Shamika · December 31, 2004 1:57AM

58 or 60. Scuff marks kill the grade.

ziggy29 · December 31, 2004 2:14AM

I'd say it looks to be a 58. I suppose coins like this are a pretty good "experiment," as your downside is extremely limited with a $10 Morgan.

mgoodm3 · December 31, 2004 2:35AM

I like the 58 theory.

razorface1027 · December 31, 2004 2:39AM

Looks cleaned to me.

tsacch · December 31, 2004 7:28AM

<< <i>Looks cleaned to me. >>

And how many PCGS entombed Morgans dont look cleaned, or Walkers or probably 50% of the other blast white coins out there?

BillJones · December 31, 2004 7:46AM

I'd say MS-63 or 62. The coin is not bad, but it's got enough marks to take it out of anything better than that.

morgannut2 · December 31, 2004 9:20AM

Well since I guessed right that it was just dipped (which is fine with me-looks great!), I'll double up and guess it will go MS-63! By the

way, I by saying to rince in acetone or pure white high grade nail polish remover, I only meant that's the way to buy it.

I woulldn't suggest a big order asking for acetone of nitrate fertilizer etc. here in D.C.--unless you're friends with the ATF/

Homeland Security folks!!!!!

Ok, grading opinion please. Morgan
