Nice looking Morgan. I'm presuming the scratches on the Obv are on the slab?

I can not tell if it on the coin or on the plastic.

 

I appreciate that the scratches are on top of plastic.

 

I've seen plastics in much better shape than this one But the main thing is the coin!

Please explain what is roller marks ?

[mtnstyne]

The "scratches" are actually roller marks. They are left from the rolling out of the raw coin material.

I like the coin, but given that CAC is very punitive with rim dings and what not, I'm surprised that they stickered the coin with roller marks and reed marks.

Reed marks I think hold this coin back from a 66

Rollers from 67

 

Nice coin ... :-)
