I'm in the process of reformatting my coin images. Right now I'm working on my Morgans. Most of them are raw so I figured while I'm at it I'll grade them. I've got my opinions; I'd like yours. To that end I will post images and ask your opinions. I'll do it one year at a time. Do not comment about being cleaned; I'm still of the opinion that you have to have the coin in hand to make that judgement. If a particular date/mm is missing that means it's slabbed (except the 1895 which I just plain don't have). Oh, and if you happen to be familiar with VAM's and want to add that info I would greatly appreciate it. So we start with 1878-8tf. Now 1878-CC And finally 1878-S Have at it, and thanks for any input.
I think the diagonal lines on the cheek of the last coin keep it out of an 64 for me... 63 if its lucky, IMHO
I agree with everyone's assessment of the first two coins, but I think even this lower opinion of the "S" is too high. MS, yes. But more like -62. Too baggy on the face.
