<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mstng02gt, post: 869366, member: 15174&quot;]Hello I was wondering if any of the professionals can offer me some advice on grading morgan dollars. I have to admit this can be a tough coin to grade so I would like any pointers. I see a lot of morgans that I simply can&#039;t tell if they are uncirculated or just the slightest weakness in the feathers. </p><p><br /></p><p>So my question is how do you tell the difference? Here is an example of a morgan that I have sitting here below. By all appearances this coin appears to be nice and white. It has 100% full cartwheel luster and everything points to it being a nice uncirulated gem. Except with the 10x the breast feathers appear to have the slighest touch of weakness (though all details seem to be present). How can you tell if coins like this are AU vs BU? What do you guys use to determine the difference? Or is this just the type of thing you just submit for grading and hope for the best?</p><p><br /></p><p>To best see the details enlarge the pic by clicking the bar on top.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i41.tinypic.com/1zg6h3a.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
