the issue is more one of focus, than alignment and no, the scan is too small
The 4s (particularly the 2nd one) don't look like they're square to the rest of the date, which is a red flag, but best to have it examined in hand.
In China, people actually use dies and presses to counterfeit US coins. The government there looks the other way. I am sure that there are other...
this is where an expert needs to examine the coin in hand. There are several likely possibilities at this point. a) genuine b) altered date c)...

the coin is worth taking to Irving
and you have included many important facts in your description. Don't alter the surfaces of the coin in any way. Have it checked. It sounds like...
While no expert on Morgans, I believe that the 1880-S, 81-S and 82-S are pretty readily available in DMPL, that is to say the populations are...

Unacceptable coin. You should send it to me so that it can live with my other sub-standard coins! :)

I don't agree that the slab brings a premium as much as the slab gives it liquidity (makes it easier to sell).
I think the point is that especially with ASEs, most of the coins will grade from MS-67 up. So the populations of MS 69 and 70 coins will not only...
I don't know if I see a cause and effect between mintage numbers and long term value, but rather the number saved. Clearly anything from 1950-...
