[QUOTE="FooFighter, post: 3496842, member: 101958"][I]WOW I hope you guys are at work the day I send MY Morgan's in to have them graded! Woah I mean, how can a coin look so bad with having no sign of being in circulation at all. There is no wear in her hair in the obvious spots. The cotton leaves and flowers show no signs. Even on the Reverse, the Eagles breast is pristine as ever and the finer feathers on the Eagle's neck, head and even between his legs look just like it would have the day it came out of the mint. But what the hell kind of toning is that? It looks like it stayed away from her head. Like there is an outline encompassing the edges of her hair and face. It is darker on the Reverse but both sides look like an old house that has the paint chipping off. I'm sorry but it's not an appealing coin. It could have problems , but if it was a visually appealing coin I'd give it an ms64, but with all the marks on her face and not even having 1 sq inch clear in the field I couldnt go any higher than AU58. Here are just 3 of mine and I'd feel SO good about sending any one of these in. [ATTACH]926440[/ATTACH] [/I][/QUOTE]
