    What would you give is in MS? I'd say MS63 myself.

    But I got it for free so it's an automatic win for me!

    It doesn't look fake to me, but it would be better if you removed it from the AirTite, and cropped & enlarged your images so we see only the coin without the background. I'm thinking MS63 or MS64, but I'd like to see better photos.

    This is the best I can do I think. Also don't let the camera fool you. It is very beautiful and shiny.

    I don't know how to take coins out of air tights. Also I don't want to touch it either. If anything I'll get it slabbed and graded by NGC, PCGS, and I can't remember the third major one.

    For airtights, I always grab a razor blade or knife and slip the blade into the seam that runs around the edge of the container and twist. :)

    I'd also second the 63 (-ish from the pics) grade.

    When it's free, it's always a win!

    Yeah, I'll agree with the 63 based on the latest photo, but it is not worth having graded. You can get a better specimen already certified for less than it would cost you in fees.

    Agreed with Chris, nice coin, no need to get it certified as it's very costly. I'd say leave it in the airtite unless you really want to play with it or have a set you want to stick it in.

    I'd go 63 as it has a little too much chatter for anything higher . Nice coin though , and even nicer when free .

    looks unc to me.... 2 or 3 if the noise on her cheek and open space in front of face are on the coin. 3, chance of 4 if on the plastic container. 80-S Morgans are common, and there are a lot of them in super-high grade (like 66-67). I would not have it graded unless I had a good shot at a 5.
