1881O with a nice strike.

I don't think it will 4 but it's still nice for an O mint piece and the price was very right

 

EDIT: If it weren't for the O MM, I would swear it was a CC or S mint Morgan.

The coin is a bit of a better date at this level of preservation.

Some of the New Orleans mint dollars from the 1880s come well struck. Not all "O Mint" dollars are poorly struck. You can find 1904-O dollars fully struck, they are not rare, but they worth a bit more and easy to sell.

I think the bit of chatter on the cheek holds it back from a higher grade, but I would be ok with that in a 64+. (The fingerprint in the field in front of her face, while it would kill it for me, is not a major problem to most of the rest of the coin collecting community.) Looks like a really nice coin, even if it is blast white.

I do.

I think it's a 64 all day long. Agree with Physics about the fingerprint.

 

What are those scratches on the reverse to the left of the eagle's head?

 

The fields look like they still have a lot of luster, but Ms. Liberties head looks rather dull in comparison.

Die polish lines.

Die polish lines.

 

That's what I was thinking, but didn't see them anywhere else. Does the coin have some PL to it?

i think youll get a ms 64 out of it. jmo

[mtnstyne]

Looks like a solid 64 to me.

[L1ncolnF4n]

4+

[yonico]

MS64+ sounds right
