    Hi fellow coin lovers I got a Morgan but on the rim I noticed extra or melted silver looks good besides this mark. But I am curious if it’s a true ms 64. I would love to know and curious what caused the mark if possible thanks in advance.

    Welcome to CT!!

    It's hard to tell from your obverse photos, but from what I can see, the reverse looks great and there appears to be very little bag marks on the bust and fields on the obverse. So yes, even with the rim ding, a MS64 seems like a fair grade to me.

    The rim just got bumped. This is an issue but the coin looks nice otherwise and the graders apparently felt the coin was worthy of a straight grade.

    A rim bump agreed. I think without that the coin is clearly a 65 from the pics. So I think they saw it and graded it accordingly

    Agree. Coin was a clear, solid 65, and the rim ding cost it one grade. That is appropriate.

    I would agree. MS-64 seems appropriate. I don't think the rim ding is bad enough to warrant a details grade.

    I think its a solid 64 too, but im not a fan of (what appears to be fingerprints) toning on the obverse. To each his own
