    1921-S Morgan Dollar

    I'm looking for grade opinions on this coin...

    The surfaces on this coin appear to be duller then the others, almost a milky color. Was it dipped too much?

    Do you think it would body bag if I sent it in to be slabbed?

    Just my opinion, but I think it would be returned in a body bag.
    I appears it has been dipped and cleaned.

    I agree. The coin has a very dull appearance typical of an over dipped coin. It would not be gradable by a TPG. Also, the 1921-S Morgan is very common and would only warrant a slab if it was an exceptionally nice specimen. Even if this coin was to end up in a slab, it's not a high enough grade to be worth the cost IMHO.

    I'm sorry to say this is another coin that is not worth your time or money to slab. I don't think it would anyway, and you'd likely spend more getting it slabbed than it was worth in the first place.

    Sorry Aslanmia, but i believe this one would get bodybagged too.

    Even if nothing was wrong with that coin, it would have to grade MS-65 before it would be worth slabbing.
    And that coin won't go MS-65.

    And THAT'S why I'm looking for second and third opinions...

    Into the melting pot it goes! :)
