Definitely cleaned and would probably get a details grade . Still I love the doubling especially under the eagles wings , tail , arrows etc .
I say it wouldn't get the designation . Looks like a couple of small breaks in the lower lines . But it could be the pics , you have it in hand...
In the PCGS Official Guide to Coin Grading and Counterfeit Detection , on page 48 it says poorly struck coins usually grade no higher than 62 to...
I'd say 65 , but don't quote me on that , I'll try to find what PCGS says about it .
Also the coin is graded on it's weakest side . If the obverse is a 67 and reverse a 65 the coin will grade 65 . At least that's what PCGS states...

I don't collect Morgans , but if I were I'd pay 64 money even though as far as I can see this looks like some 65s I've recently seen in PCGS slabs .
Dick you have to quit answering so fast , it always seems like I'm copying your answer . I'm going with F-12 also . ;)
I'll go 64 . But I'm sure PCGS went 65 .
68 on the D , 67 on the Phili .
Ok a cent , and free shipping .
Paddy 9:00 am , Eastern or Central ? Hey inquiring minds want to know .
Good eye , I didn't even look at the S . But the loop and especially the top loop of the S should be open where the ops S seems narrow . Since...
The corrosion could be stopped very easily . Also if sent to NCS it would then probably grade . I'm in the $300 area .
Great learning experience for all !!!!!
