<p>[QUOTE="180IQ, post: 2635448, member: 84901"]I always assume my coins are the absolute highest value possible until they are graded, if I didn't, there would be potato chip grease on the morgan. I don't know that the 1855 is MS 65, but it's very pretty, and I KNOW if it got scuffed by a stupid plastic coin flip that it would NOT be. That's my dilemma. Monday I'll ask them if they mind giving coins special attention for free, if not, then for a fee. I am somewhat of a rare Tim in that I posted hoping someone who knew morgans better than I did would say the same thing I was thinking. The first time I saw the coin I thought damn is that fake? Then I looked at all the condition pics on PCGS and thought wow all the high points besides the cheek and eagles chest have NO wear, and even mint lustre or mirror finish. I hope it's MS obviously. Everyone wants to score the diamond in the rough right? Also even if it isn't MS it could come back graded MS, a lot of coins graded MS look like someone took a belt sander to them. Have you seen the pictures I'm talking about? Coins graded MS that look literally belt sanded? On their website.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
