Rainbow 19O4-O Morgan(Grade revealed!!)

[prudden]

Hey all,

 

Just got this one. My camera isn't picking up all the color. It seems about 1/2 is left behind. Anyone want to take a stab at the grade? Thanks for looking.

I like the looks of the Morgan. Very nice! I'm going with MS64. Looks like some slide marks going across the eagle. Sweet colors!

64+++++++ with claims to 65 if not 65 already

also great lustre, strike and eye appeal for an 1904-o

I meant to add that if 2 or more get it right,I'll keep it.

How about 64*? Looks sweeeet!!

Those roller marks are 1/2 point, so it's a borderline MS-65/4. I'd probably err on the MS-64 side, but PQ. Did it get a star?

MS64 with a pretty little star next to it

Here's a couple new pics. Maybe better.

 

 

I deleted the 2nd seperate thread.I didn't want to clutter up the board any more.No point waiting. I wouldn't get the right grade from any of these pictures. This is the problem with buying from photos and relying on the slab. A big part of my decision was the slab considering it is a newer type and NGC grading has been said to be tightened up so much in the last year.My own experience seemed to bear this out.

So,what do you guys think.Is it just the picture magnifying faults? I've got an MS 66 82S graded by ICG that cost around 1/2 what this one did and it's immaculate compared to this one. I know,the 82 S is well known for great strikes and the 04-O not so much but ....

Here are pics of my 82 S MS 66 Morgan for comparison.The shadow hides the depth of the strike here.There a small rub on the neck and 98% of the little scratches are on the slab.

As I stated, it's a nice looking Morgan but I think I would expect a tad cleaner coin for MS66. I'm sure the * is for the toning.
