1890-CC Morgan GTG *GRADE REVEALED*

[JIM F.]

[JStull]

Nice coin.

 

Hardly noticeable blemish on the neck, I'd say 64/65.

[Mary B]

MS-63, enough damage in the fields to distract. But I tend to under grade so *shrug*

[jayman1970]

65

[MarkFeld]

MS62

[JIM F.]

Here's a hint (but it might throw you off). It has a green CAC.

[newprepper]

MS 64, ive been comparing it to a 62 I have and it appears better

[jgrinz]

MS64

[L1ncolnF4n]

63

[JIM F.]

Well it's a an AU-58. For the life of me I can not see any wear and it matches up to MS-63/64 I have.

 

I guess if it was really MS, it would have a gold bean

 

[JStull]

Wow!

 

I think PCGS blew this one.

 

I can't see any trace of wear on either side.

 

As I mentioned, there's a slight blemish on Liberty's neck, but it's not severe enough, IMO, to hold it back to an AU.

I doubt that PCGS got it wrong. They saw the coin in hand, while we are trying to evaluate it, based on an image - advantage PCGS.

 

I guessed MS62, because there looked to be a lot of disturbance on Liberty's cheek. And it's quite possible, that what looked like lots of light chatter, was the result of light circulation.

[newprepper]

i suck at this

My thoughts exactly... I had this as a 62, but I was also thinking AU58, but did not want to offend people with that.

I honestly couldn't see any wear in the IMAGES alone but seeing it in hand is always much better. An in hand inspection may have told a different story.

[JIM F.]

I have it in one hand with a hammer in the other. But haven't cracked it out yet.

 

Perhaps send it in for a crossover at a higher grade....do TPG's allow crossovers if a higher grade (minimum) is part of the review?

Don't use a hammer, you could hit your hand and it really hurts, drive over it with your car instead

[SamD]

I've been surprised before by AU 58's. The LIBERTY in the hair ribbon is slightly worn, perhaps that is why. The reverse is better -- I'd give it a 61.

[FishyOne]

I use to own this coin and AU58 is an accurate grade.

 

Pieces like this are market graded into 61 or 62 holders all the time though. With a touch better obverse luster, it would look right at home in an MS62 slab!

[jgrinz]

It depends on the monitor I guess

 

I am looking at the coin on this one at work and would never had said

64 seeing all the background chatter I see on this monitor.

 

I would say NO on CRACK also
