    I have a 1891 Carson City Morgan Silver Dollar. I would say it's a VG-10 or F-12, except for 3 very noticeable nicks on liberty's face.. How much would this affect the value do you think?

    I know this is a fairly rare piece, as even G-04 is valued at $95 in the PCGS book.. But would these nicks take it below that?

    ~ouch~ those are gouges! and the rim dings are actually raising the edge of the coin.

    It would not grade, too much damage, I'm not going to give you a value as it would only be as much as someone is willing to pay.

    That's unfortunate. The damage is in the prime focal area. Luckily it is a low-grade coin. Many collectors would not want this coin because they can buy an undamaged example in the same grade for $100 or less. But buyers on eBay may not discount the value very much due to the damage. I would sell it on eBay and buy an undamaged coin.
