So here is the contest, I will be submitting the coin pictured in this thread for grading, and whoever guesses the correct grade will win a prize, however, since there will probably be several correct guesses, I will choose one at random. The prize will be an 1882 morgan dollars, and maybe some other goodies. I hope this contest doesn't violate the rules, as I posted it in another thread, but I just now decided to have a contest since I found a morgan dollar under my couch. BTW, it is definitely a DMPL in my opinion. I placed the coin 18 inches under a 60 watt incandescent lamp, and placed it perpindicular to a piece of paper, and could read typing on a piece of paper up to 7 inches away.
one more thing, the thing that looks like some sort of scratch that seems pretty long around the forehead is from the scanner, and is not on the coin.
I will say 63 DMPL. I will be glad to hear back from you I have one that is very similar to this one.
well, I am going to guess at MS64. Could go higher depending on who your sending the coin to for grading. : ) Send it to SGS and its a 69 PL!
