[QUOTE="DoubleDie, post: 374305, member: 10132"]This particular coin is not a dramatic weak strike, but it does have weak strike indicators above the ear and the breast. In [I]some[/I] of the pictures provided. Most of the 1886-O entered circulation, and the reason they are most valuable in MS grades. I bought a solid roll of this date, a few years back, and they looked to have been cleaned. However, I submitted several to ANACS and none came back cleaned. Keep in mind, theses coin where littered with marks like small straight lines, but where not cleaned. Often, 1886-O Morgans, obtain circulation "lines" from slot machines and banging against other coins, or rubbing together in pockets and bags, or from handling. This is not a definitive statement that the coin in question is not cleaned, but I offer these comments for consideration only. The only method for an honest consensus on the coins condition is an in-hand examination. I would consider a submission to ANACS. At the least, the coin would be net graded.[/QUOTE]
