After reading this thread, I'm inclined to think that they are grease as pointed out by both Mark Feld and the Heritage cataloger. And while I...
Why not? I think it would provide a window into why the TPGs grade the way that they do. And we aren't asking them to provide the analysis that...
I didn't post a top pop modern so why would you be referring to them? And there isn't a PR63 on the planet that even approaches that coin. At...

MS64. The reverse is MS65 quality but the obverse will usually determine the grade on Morgans and this obverse has a banged up cheek and a huge...
Based on the new photos, I am declaring Jason correct, and changing my opinion to MS64PL.
Reminds me of an old coin collecting maxim. Good coins are not cheap, and cheap coins are not good.
Key date or not, that dipped coin is not better looking that the coin in the OP. Why would you buy a coin with the worst strike you have ever...
