Guess the grade (toned morgan) grade posted

[mbbiker]

Will post the grade on Sunday 3-02-03

The first pic shows the luster the second pic shows the colors

[jtryka]

I guess MS-64.

[BankNote1]

The '85-O has super lustre and a good strike! Nice obverse toning. There is a little chatter on the cheek. But the fields look clean. I am going to say MS65!!

[GP_]

I am going to Say MS65 (maybe a 66) since it is an O and that is a wicked nice strike for an O mint coin! I know it would look very nice in my O mint collection thats for sure!

[Peace_Fan]

I guess MS65....is the spot behind Liberty's head on the obverse some toning or is it on the holder?

[mbbiker]

the spot is on the coin, i don't know what it is. Very interesting guesses so far. I think you will be surprised when you see what PCGS gave this coin. it's in the green insert holder if that means anything.

[RotatedRainbows]

Going by the first picture I would say 63.

[Klectorkid]

MS-63

[EVillageProwler]

My guess: 63 obv, 64+ rev, for a net grade of MS63.

Hmmm, I'm torn between 63 and 64. Can I guess 63.5?

[BankNote1]

Old Green holder? Then I would guess somewhere between G4 amd MS70!!!

[leo5188-migration]

MS64!!!!!!!

[Hoot]

Given it's an O mint coin, I'll guess MS65, otherwise I'd say 64.

[mbbiker]

And the grade is

 

 

After seeing the grades posted here i think it's got a good chance at an upgrade. It's not going to be sent in but it's nice to know that it's PQ for the grade.

Hey MB,

 

I'm 2-for-2 with the "Guess the Grade" game. What prize do I get? (I also got the grade of that Peace dollar correct.)

WHOA!! that coin is crazy undergraded, even for PCGS! I will trade you one of my PCGS MS63 O mint 1885's for that one!

[Hoot]

You nailed that one EVP! Gearing up a bit for your upcoming competition?

Mark,

 

Alas, this exercise doesn't help much with the competition. I think I'm gonna get whipped by Mr. Maben. I am not confident at all that I'll get even ONE correct.

 

Guessing the date from looking only at the reverse is pretty tough for me! I have tried in the past -- when I was looking at many Morgans -- and never did well. And, I haven't looked at a Morgan in years.

"Guessing the date from looking only at the reverse"

I can do that with 1921-D's other than that i don't have a clue

[BankNote1]

Before I got my glasses changed I couldn't tell the date form looking at the obverse!!
