What makes that coin an F-15? I would place that more around a VF or XF...

It is the 'stopper' for a VF set of Morgan's. It took me 2 years of hard looking to find a nice circulated example for my album set. I also agree that it would not be out of place in a VF20 slab. No better than that though.
The flat wing feathers will keep it from a VF grade. Of course that doesn't mean I have never seen a coin like this in a VF holder...
I used to be somebody, now I'm just a coin collector. Recipient of the coveted "You Suck" award, April 2009 for cherrypicking a 1833 CBHD LM-5, and April 2022 for a 1835 LM-12, and again in Aug 2012 for picking off a 1952 FS-902.
He's asking VF money for a certified F15? Hmmmmmm.
Wow, only $125 difference in price range between VF and MS64 on the PCGS price guide for this coin? Unusual for Morgans, I presume because of the low mintage.
Exclusively collecting Capped Bust Halves in VF to AU, especially rarity 3 and up.

This is a good point. A primary diagnostic for a full VF reverse used to be full separation of the wing feathers. Not any more.
