Latest Purchase - Morgan Dollar

I just bought this on eBay.

As it's the oldest US coin I own and the most expensive I have purchased at £22, I thought I'd put it up here for comments.

I just hope it's genuine. The seller has a good rating but I'm no expert on US coins.

Price sounds about right for that coin.
I'm guessing a MS-63. The marks on the face probably keep it from going to MS-64.

Only thing that could be wrong is if it were cleaned.
I don't see any evidence of that, but can't tell for sure from an image.

Nice coin.

 

Looks pretty solid, Vince. Nice work !

 

Its real
It has not been cleaned
Its a 62/63 by the pictures
A little baggy on the marks but overall nice coin there my friend

 

a bit baggy on the obv, but the rev is very nice. A 63 piece in my book.

 

I think you did well, Vince. Enjoy the coin.

 

I'm amazed how little money is needed to buy these coins. To buy a British coin of this age and this quality I would need several hundred pounds.

I'm relieved to know it is real and I really appreciate your comments.

 

I think you did alright, doesn't look cleaned. Reverse pic shows luster.
