I'm feeling more F15 on this one, guys... and I'm definitely not what you'd call a "conservative grader". :p If you say a poor strike is the...
I don't believe the coin is proof strike - if just has prooflike surfaces. I think an old dip also made the cameo a bit more pronounced and...
Well, Ken, it's an 1885 Morgan Silver Dollar struck out of Philadelphia... ;) I think that should sum it up well enough for ya, ol' chap. :D
Your pics aren't the best, but it almost looks like it's been tooled... AU-Details, IMHO
Appears to be an 1824/4 (recut 4) variety - not one of the scarcer 1824/1 die marriages. The distance between the '2' and the '4' is too great...

Since the coin has circulated a bit, I can't see it being worth more than $10 in a retail setting. If I were you, I'd just keep it in a 2x2 -...
Yup - she's a winner. Nice find! :thumb:
Even as an R4 die marriage, in that condition, the coin/variety is not desirable and realistically not worth a premium. When it comes to...
Good luck with that............... :rolleyes:
Yup, it's the DDO FS-101. Last one in PCGS MS62 sold at Teletrade for $322. My personal opinion - If you don't plan on keeping the coin, I'd...
That's one harshly-cleaned Bustie! :confused: If you haven't already made the purchase and you're just here looking for some opinions - please,...
Thanks! And yes, it's in one of those new, blue ANACS slabs - They called it EF45, which I find rather comical. I'll have it crossed eventually,...
