    Still going through a recent consignment - found this pretty cool VAM 17. The good: the coin has minimal bag marks. The bad: the coin has some kind of cloudy substance on the obverse.

    Do any of you Morgan experts think this coin should be TPG'd?

    As part of an economy or bulk order, perhaps. It really depends what's on the obverse. Acetone might take it off if it is actually a substance and not hazy toning.

    There's not a premium on this VAM at this time. Double check against VAM 15 and 54. While I haven't attributed any 79-S VAM 17, I have seen 6 VAM 15 and 3 VAM 54.

    Definitely haze, not a substance.
