Mine used to be my wife finding out how much I spent at an auction. I am happily divorced now and my girlfriend doesn't see any of my bank...
I see a couple of breaks in the luster, in particular on the cheek and brow ridge. Looks AU-58, still a bargain at eight bucks.
I think you did well for 8 bucks. I remember buying a 50-D for about that price 30 years ago. Pics are a little blurry for accurate grading but...
The second. There are so many nice 1881s PL, I think I would want the one with the attribution.
It would not get a numerical grade due to the damage on the obverse. But if it were sent to a TPG, you could expect to get it back "fine details".
Sorry about your monitor BUncirculated, but unlike coins, it is perfectly acceptable to clean your monitor.
Leave the old girl alone. I equate this to a hundred year old lady getting a boob job. I don't think anyone really wants to see that. But if...

That's a great circulation find.
Very nice. But you should be warned, PL Morgans quickly become a disease, and you will need the rest to cure it.
I think that the 24 will upgrade, but the 28 has just too many marks in the field of the reverse and it has more marks on the wings of the eagle...
"It's like we flipped a switch and changed coin collecting forever" From David Hall speaking of the opening of PCGS. I would have to say that...
I see evidence of whizzing. Across the feathers in particular. Even if it was a righteous coin, I don't see it as a 65-66, More like 63-64. Too...
