    I was just wondering what your opinion on this CC Morgan is? Real? Fake? Value? Thanks! ;)

    As to if this is a fake coin or not I am unable to tell from tho photos, looks real to me. For a better opinion you would need to weight and measure this coin.

    Based upon your photos and MHO, if it is real this coin it is a strong VF or XF. Greysheet listed this coin in these conditions to wholesale between $85 and $105 bid. Numismatic News lists this coin retail between $110 and $125.

    I'm no expert on counterfeits, but nothing looks wrong to me. Nice coin! Circulated CC Morgans are still a pretty good value.

    rzage What Goes Around Comes Around .

    From these pictures it looks real to me , weigh it like tpsadler said , it should weigh around 412 grains , also if you have the coin in hand , using your highest power loupe look for tooling or casting lines .

    The toning bothers me, but that could just be your image.
    And I agree with tpsadler about the grade.
