<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CamaroDMD, post: 7631771, member: 5233&quot;]One of my goals has always been to assemble a graded set of Morgan Dollars. Cost and just generally being overwhelmed as stopped me from starting seriously collecting my favorite series. I think it&#039;s time to start taking that seriously.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think the first place to start is by examining my raw collection and seeing if there are any coins in there &quot;worthy&quot; of being in such a collection. Coins I might want to one day have graded rather than buying another example.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is one such coin. A common date 1881-S.&nbsp; I know, the 1881-S is widely available with stunning examples and this is not that fantastic...but this coin is very special to me.&nbsp; This is the very first Morgan I ever bought.&nbsp; I was probably 12 or 13 years old and this is the coin that made me fall in love with Morgan&#039;s.</p><p><br /></p><p>In my opinion, this coin is nice but has some noticeable flaws.&nbsp; Most obvious is the marks on the cheek.&nbsp; It has nice mirror fields and some frosting...but it&#039;s not enough to make it PL (I didn&#039;t do a great job capturing it in the photos).&nbsp; It&#039;s certainly PL-like.</p><p><br /></p><p>I would like your opinion on grade. I have a grade in my head...but I want to see what you guys think.&nbsp; [USER=37839]@Morgandude11[/USER], I&#039;d love your opinion</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Please note, I am not asking you to GTG. This coin is raw. So, I have no grade to reveal. I just want your opinions.</b></p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b><img src="https://i.imgur.com/BVIhnqo.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></b>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
