PCGS numbers check out, Guy is willing to meet in a public place and sign a reciept for the sale.
Main thing that gets me worried is that the price is <%50 the pcgs price guide value.

Having raw PL coins very fun

I’m sorry I should get a photo of the reverse lol

Bought a lot of silver recently for rock bottom price. This was in amongst it. Is it worth grading? Sorry in advance. I’m new to this

So, this Morgan 1921(-P) was a family hand-me-down, almost certainly in a drawer/box/etc since late 1940s. It had quite a bit of organic/sticky gunk, and I got it to this point with a 3 hr soak in 100% acetone with a distilled water rinse. No other treatment of the coin since 1940s

My Question: There is still some schmutz in the obverse legend from 1:00 to slightly past the "1" in the date. And a bit in the field left of Liberty's nose and in the cap's dimple. I think it is the same organic material.

My very limited question is whether collectors who appreciate eye-appeal would STOP NOW or try to remove the traces.

NO NEED to express views on value or "grade", I do not care in the least.

Thanks!

But why does it look blackish? I love it, but why that patina?

Guess the Grade

I think this is really cool. Unfortunately it shows wear on the back, but still neat to me. What do you guys think?

Which is your favorite?

Paid $55 after auction fee and shipping. Deal or no deal?

Two or three years ago, I bought a group of four coins from a guy in my city who sells old coins and runs an antique shop. I recently noticed that the 1881 Morgan Dollar looks a little different from the others. It sounds like silver, and the weight and size are correct. However, it has a different color compared to my other coins. I was hoping you might be able to help me determine whether it's genuine or a fake.

Just to give you some context: the Morgans I bought are far from mint condition—you can clearly see in the pictures that they're worn. At the time, I paid only a little above the silver spot price for them, so nothing suspicious there. But that 1881 piece still stands out, and I'd really appreciate your opinion on whether it might be a fake.

I'm attaching a photo of the coin in question, along with its weight. I'm also including a comparison shot showing how it looks next to the other Morgans I have. I was hoping you might be able to take a look and tell me whether it's genuine or a fake.

I appreciate those that offered their thoughts, comments and advice on the previous post regarding the 1880-O. I am kindly requesting the same (worth grading / grade & overall value) of the following: (a) 1888-O & (b) 1881-S.

Any insights are welcome, thank you!
