Here's an 1888 Morgan dollar for consideration as a prize in this contest. It is certified by ANACS as MS61 and is a lustrous white Mint State...
Nicely done.
Neato.
I'd have delightedly bought that one for 37 bucks. And I say AU, not just XF. Look, you got a vote of confidence from the King of Cheap Large...
It is more perfectly round, like a milled coin rather than an ancient. I suppose India is as good a guess as any, but unfortunately I'm stumped...
I would tend to agree- and maybe even say 65... except that's an awful deep looking divot there on Liberty's cheek. I guess it's a bagmark....

… and yes, I think we largely have Suetonius to thank for the construct of the whole “Twelve Caesars” thing. Otherwise, who would lump one...
That would be this: the history written by Suetonius, personal secretary to the emperor Hadrian in the 2nd century. He had access to primary...
Of course, someone with a name like “BuffaloHunter” likely already has the 1935 and ‘37-P Buffaloes in high grade. But maybe “too many” is not...
It’s your round in the contest, pardner. Why not? Here, I’ll post a free entry in this post for @BuffaloHunter to receive the prize. Now you do...
That looks like Helios on the obverse, with that radiate crown. At any rate, I'm seeing a few coins with a radiate bust on the obverse and a...
My cat Bean wanted to say something about that one. :cat: [IMG] You've been quite busy, haven't you? :)
