Please guess the grade.

Love that old album toning. Is it in an old fatty holder? Looks like a strong strike for this particular 'O' mint. I'm going solid MS65, and a point higher wouldn't surprise me either. GREAT looking coin Kenny (thumbs u

Ditto, and the possibility of 66 wouldn't be a surprise.

MS65 - I think the notch on the chest is a little distracting and may be the point holding it from a 66

 

Nicely toned - Die cracked - Hammered "O" Mint

 

Nice coin

[James_OldeTowne]

MS-64, and it looks much like a Redfield dollar to me.

[CyberspaceVoid]

MS-65. The fields look very clear, but IMO there are a few to many blemishes in front of Liberty, above her head, and on her cheek and neck so that will keep it back from a full MS-66. The revese is a killer if that isn't a photo pixil problem on the chest (it looks squared off).

 

[johnny9434]

it looks like ms 64 to me as well. it would be nice to get a ms 65 jmo

[JVC]

Put me down for MS-65. I like the look of this coin.

[mtnstyne]

I am betting it is graded MS64 in an old holder.

 

I would grade it MS65, love that type of toning, that is exactly the type I have been looking for my year set of raw morgans.

MS 65 - I have one that looks very similar.

[coinman_23885]

Thanks to everyone who has replied and thanks for your compliments. To answer a few of the comments that have been posted, the coin is in a NGC old no line fatty. The coin is not a Redfield coin, or at least it is not pedigreed as such. I will post the grade (hopefully) this evening. Thanks again.

[coinman_23885]

I'll probably send this off to the sticker mill.

 

[physics-fan3.14]

I'll be honest, that coin looks undergraded. The only thing that might be holding it back some is the luster, which appears a bit weak.

[FishyOne]

A solid 64 by "old" grading standards! If the luster is weak, as it appears to be in the images, then the grade is "still" correct.

[Kamillion]

luster shmuster ,

 

that coins a 65 !

I couldn't agree more! (thumbs u

My initial guess agrees with NGC, and I'll explain why I thought it was MS-64, as alluded to my first response. It looks like "Redfield dollar" to me, and I have seen a ton of those, enough to know that they almost always have muted luster. Also, I see a bit of friction on Liberty's forward cheek area.

 

The coin is really choice for the grade, and could quite easily upgrade. For me, though, it is more enjoyable as a true PQ MS-64.

[coinman_23885]

Thank you all again for your help. I actually received this coin in hand today. The pictures are accurate, except the luster is a bit stronger (but as pointed out, not as strong as it could be).
