They are the two finest O-Morgans in my collection...both with unusually strong strikes (full breast feathers, leaves, etc), smooth fields and super eye-appeal...easily 64-plus/65...and while the slabs do not show a number grade, they're quite hefty and beautiful with a NO mint photo and a story, plus there IS a serial number in smaller font on the reverse at the bottom. Apparently from what I understand, some slabs at some point reflected a grade, and others, as these, did not.
