    It's easy to tell that it is in a GSA case by the small black tabs on the rim of the reverse at 2 & 10 o'clock.

    If only the obverse looked more like the reverse, it would be a lock for MS65. As it is, with the hits to her face, I'm thinking MS63. It's still a nice one!

    Ya I was thinkin the same thing. The dealer had 4 of them. It was between this one and one more. When I saw this reverse I had to have it. Too bad about the hits :( But its still a nice one and maybe I'll get a better one next time (in 24 years or so lol).

    Nothing wrong with that example at all...I would say it's a solid MS63 to MS63+ based on the way CC morgans are graded and the provanance of being in a GSA holder only helps the value and desirability :)

    Very nice pick up. The CC coins are special enough, IMO, but the GSA CCs are even better.

    I would agree with the 63 grade. The 1883's were the second most common coin found in the hoard with just a little less then 63% of the entire mintage of 1,204,000 found in the GSA hoard. Only the 1884 is more common. Still, A heck of a coin. [FONT=Palatino Linotype, Book Antiqua, Palatino, serif][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][/FONT][/FONT]
