Now for round 2's coin. It's an 1881-S Morgan Dollar also graded by PCGS. Again, you MUST say the EXACT grade the label says. (If it's cleaned, proof, etc... as well!)










Round 2 ends June 10th, Wednesday. After that, this round will be closed and no more PM's will be accepted. I will announce who has made it, then round 3 will begin.


PLEASE *PM* ME WITH YOUR ANSWER! DO NOT POST YOUR ANSWER HERE. THANK YOU! Good luck and have fun!

Also, please note that there's some chatter on the cheek and neck that doesn't really show well.

Yeah, Lincoln's are a tough one for me too, especially the higher graded ones.

PM sent. I was just happy to make it past round one. Lincolns are not my series at all.

P.S. I forgot to mention (if it matters) that the coin is in an old green PCGS holder. You're allowed to re-guess if needed.
