[QUOTE="Midas, post: 59434, member: 2761"]New Orleans struck coins had some of the worst quality control. They replaced their dies less frequently and many hardcore Morgan collectors can look at a MS Morgan Obverse and tell where it was minted. New Orlean struck coins were over all flat and poor quality. San Francisco gave us some of the best struck Morgans. Take a look at a 1880 or 1881-S Morgan in BU condition. Simply beautiful! So, what would grade MS65 from New Orleans would probably grade at MS63 in San Francisco. It is just the nature of the beast.[/QUOTE]
