<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 7634421, member: 101855&quot;]The 1881-S Morgan is a very common date that is easy to find in Mint State with lots of luster. I have not looked at graded examples of this coin for a long time. Years ago the grading services were super conservative when they graded them. You needed an <b>really nice</b> <b>looking</b> coin to make MS-65. Some New Orleans Mint pieces that looked like some of the 1881-S MS-65s would have gotten MS-66 or ever higher. </p><p><br /></p><p>The OP is no better than MS-63. Back in the day it may have been less, given the conservative attitudes. Having it graded at today&#039;s prices would be done strictly for sentimental reasons unless you have one of those grading memberships when you have some free certifications coming.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
