  It may just be the images, but this coin looks a little odd to me. Not a lot, just a little. It reminds me of a pencil rubbing. I'm also curious about the brown spot under Liberty's chin. I still have a lot to learn, so don't let my comments bother you. There are many folks here who know a lot about Morgans that won't hesitate to correct me if my impression is wrong.

  Could you enlarge the pic a little....might help. But from what I am looking at yes..authentic, and good - fine grade??? I could be way off.....pics on internet tough.

  Solid fine. You might get lucky and get a VF. I think it would grade at any TPG.

  Looks like a FN15.
  
  If they BB it, it may be for the scratch in fron of her face.

  VF20. Believe it or not, there are collectible Morgan dollars that are not in slabs.

  Totally original. It will grade at any TPG all day long. Minimum grade VF20. I think it is solid enough to merit a VF25.

  Sure looks VF25 to me, I'd buy it at that.
  
  Ditto on the plastic thing - not all sellers on Ebay peddle raw carp

  Was that guess of vf-35 overly optimistic? I was thinking at most Vf-20, that being said I love nicely worn, battleship grey, looks like well loved coin that got some use.

  Looks like a nice enough coin to me. It's always nice for a Morgan collector to get that 1895 date out of the way!

  that scratch right buy her nose is the only thing that I'm worrying about. I will have to get a close up picture of that.
