Again...waiting for my ANA Grade Book :D....but since there are more marks the lower you go it's going to be much tougher to determine an MS-63...
Wait....grade DOWN for the more common coin, right ?
Lehigh, they are both MS-65*, right ? The 2nd one has much darker/noticeable blotches on the face, even I can see that. If the 1st one is a 65,...
If anybody wants to show me WHY this isn't an MS-65 -- either by showing me much better MS-65's or showing me an MS-64 (or lower) that is as nice...
Well, I can help you there, Lehigh :D....this thread has pics at the top of my 1898 MS-64 PL:...

1 grade higher is understandable, esp. if you ignore the "*" and "+" stuff. 2 grades should be very rare over time. If a coin goes up by 3...
Why are HR Saints graded to a different status ? Because the high relief should lead to less damage in the fields and/or more wear on the devices...
The first one is a 1907 HR Saint graded MS-65. The pics do not go large enough to tell but it appears that the coin is undergraded. IOTW, based...
The proof of circulation on that AG-58 Saint is.............?
It is very noticeable....what's the rule on gouges and dings as opposed to bag marks ?:D
Agreed...some new books have come out on Morgan Dollars and also the Carson City GSA Hoard, any recommendations ? Have you checked them out ?
