[QUOTE="ddddd, post: 24765735, member: 22377"]Next up comes a Gen 6 MS 61 and a Gen 5 (1996-1999) MS 60 slab. The interesting thing is that the Gen 5 is fairly close in cert number to the Gen 4 MS 62 shown earlier, but you can tell the slabs are different styles-plus the MS 60 slab is larger in size. These are slightly more challenging grades to find than the 62 to 65 range. And that is reflected in the fact that I paid close to MS 63 money for both. Fortunately the spread from raw uncirculated to MS 64 isn't huge, so I was ok over paying a little to get these in the set. The MS 61 is a typical baggy Morgan with plenty of hits. The luster is strong. The MS 60 has fewer hits, although there are several bigger marks. What lowers it is the more dull nature of the luster-it is there but isn't as strong as needed for a 62 or 63 (which it could have made if judged just by the hits). I believe both coins to be fair representatives of the assigned grades. [ATTACH=full]1584232[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1584233[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
