    1884 S Morgan

    I recently picked this one up to upgrade the filler I had for my Morgan set. I was wondering what you think it might grade by a TPG. I am biased, but I think it's knocking on AU's door.

    Fine
    Looks XF 45 or so to me. Knocking on the door of AU. That is a brutal date, as it is a conditional rarity in MS. Could go as high as an AU 53???

    Thanks for the answers and please keep them coming. I also would like to know what you think would have been an appropriate price for this coin. I will let you know what I paid for it later.

    Is it just me or does the coin looked cleaned/dipped to you? There appears to be an uneven (even flat on the obverse) amount of luster and some extra wear on the obverse.

    Probably AU details but fairly certain it is cleaned.

    I'll go with an AU but the look is kinda off. but with pictures you never know what's from lighting. the same coin can look a lot different in a series of pictures with lighting changes/ background etc.

    Thanks for the answers. I personally don't think it has been cleaned. In hand I don't see the scratches usually associated with cleaning, but I am no expert either. All in all I don't think I did too bad considering I paid $27 for it.Click here to enlarge

    Looks cleaned or AT, the faint pastel color on the obverse does not look natural.
