Thanks! This could turn out to be a valuable learning experience for me as well. By the way, how long has it been since you made that significant purchase?

I will,I just did not see the same luster on it in these pictures.

Here are some other pictures that i have asked for.What do you think?

Yes I have seen them,they're quite helpful.Also this is my first raw morgan dollar bought.

I have a nice scale that really accurate,it is used for coffe and it displays measurements down to the thousandth of a gram.The problem would be the XRF scan but I don't think i have to go that far.I am most afraid of getting a details grade instead of a straight grade because of that scratch on the cheek but i still got it for a decent price.

I've contacted the seller, requesting a photo with the coin being weighed for an added authenticity check. I plan to make the payment right after receiving the picture.I think I might have it graded in the future, I'm leaning towards NGC, though PCGS is also a viable option.

Hey everyone, I'm back with an update on the coin situation. Snagged it for $308, and I'm thinking that's a decent price. What's your take on it? https://www.ebay.com/itm/196133948972

I see,that is quite concerning to me i was expecting a bit higher grade.

I will keep that in mind,I will let u know about the final price since it is an auction.

Thank you for the info,if i were to buy an ungraded coin from ebay I surely would verify its authenticity when it arrives.

Hey everyone, I came across a Morgan Dollar online and I'm curious about its potential grade given its current condition. Any advice on what a fair offer might be for it? These are all the pictures that I have,I appreciate the details on it thought i think that it could be cleaned.

Thanks, and I also wish you the best of luck!

I have an 1881 S in MS 64,I was interested in the mintmark and the rarity of it.

I was particularly drawn to the details on this coin compared to others I've come across. However, I'm currently placing a bid on a more appealing specimen of the same kind.

Hello,thank you for the reply.I've checked out similar Morgan dollars on eBay around this price, and I actually like this coin better than the ones I saw.After considering all the opinions I've received today, I'm leaning towards passing on this offer. I might increase my budget a bit and go for a nicer one.
