[QUOTE="CamaroDMD, post: 7678685, member: 5233"]OK, so here is the reveal: [img]https://i.imgur.com/p7iR4pq.png[/img] In hand, this coin has booming luster, amazing mirror fields and lovely frosted devices. The strike is 100% full. It is an absolute stunner. In my opinion, it could have earned an MS65 grade. It is absolutely a DMPL, no question about that. Photographing DMPL Morgan's is always difficult and they often look more baggy than they actually are. Highly frosted areas like the cheek often look beaten up in photos. This coin is no exception.
