How To Grade Morgan Dollars. Should You Submit Your Morgan Dollars For Grading? 

I agree 100%, we shoud be able to scan these and put a grade on them. The current system is like MLB baseball, a ball or strike is totally dependent upon the umpire.

You have no idea how much your videos help people. Some need this information, and we are grateful for all you do. Thanks again

I’ve been collecting coins for 40 years and still learning. You’re doing a great job, the video was very informative, I’m looking forward to seeing/ learning more.

I have learned to buy a few graded coins so I get insight into grading raw coins. Being a newer collector these types of videos really help out. Thanks 👍😃😎

Thanks again. The dollar coins are my favorites. I haven’t watched a single of yours that I have not learned some very helpful information. Great video Daniel. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Man I like watching your vids, u give out the best info out there.

Good video. And you're correct. We can't split grades within a grade. It's why I never debate grade. Only price. To me, a coin is worth a certain price. The seller can call it whatever he likes.

Good information. The more coins one looks at the better you get at understanding grading. Thanks. 😃

Thanks Daniel - for an honest assessment of the third party grading of these Morgans. I really have enjoyed watching your channel - so keep up the good work!

Daniel I have a pretty good collection of Morgan's, a great deal of them are raw and should be Graded. And all of the coins I have that are Graded none are less than MS 62 up to MS 66, can't afford the next tier lol. I compare the Graded coins to the raw and I can tell you there are definitely a difference between a few of them. Thanks for sharing as always.

WOW! WHAT AN EYE OPENER. THIS IS A SERIOUSLY DIFFICULT BUSINESS TEACHER/BOYFRIEND. I GET OVERWHELMED LOOKING AT THE LITTLE COINS AND DECEIFERING THEM. THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME 🐆🐆🐈🐈🐃🐥❤

I appreciate your videos. I’m learning I go and enjoy the information you share. Thank you very much. 😊

Very informative, thank you so much. I'm a relatively new collector (3yrs) and I appreciate everything you're doing.New sub AAA+!

I got several Morgan’s myself I’ve collected which are slabbed I love the beauty

Totally agree with you on the computer part. I am pro sr. software analyst, but a newbie in numismatic. I think computers can’t lie though. They just don’t know how, unless you teach them.

What I've noticed just at looking at coins on the NGC sold auctions list . The more expensive coins are all near flawless at ms65, and the more common dates / mints tend to be a bit more liberal. And honestly I dont mind .... gives me hope for my change by keeping the premiums inflated. But it could be my eye . I do agree about the computer analysis though, great equalizer .

Good video. I've got one I was thinking about sending off but still not sure. Good video an I agree with the things you said in this.

I have seen graded MS61’s that I would have graded as AU... Morgan’s. ANACS grades good, I don’t know why the market doesn’t like them. Many ANACS will upgrade if sent to PCGS or NCG.

Learning a lot from your videos. Thank you.

they need computers to get involved.i agree with you unless you are a big guy you can't request a grade and expect to get it unless you spend enough money on the service in my opinion.the last coin i sent was cherry picked at a coin shop and it was a 1913d buffalo that cost me 2 dollars.i got it back and it was ms64 one of the best strikes i have seen full mint luster,full horn,no major contact marks and so on.i am sure you have had similar experiences any way nice video.

Great job man... always enjoy your' videos...

Great video. Keep up the awesome content🤘🤘

Excellent work! Helped me big time.

You are very helpful and knowledgeable and I love listening to you.

Love your videos. Very educational for me as a new coin collector.

Very very informative and fascinating! I totally agree

Enjoy watching ur video very informative ty sir for your time and effort

video with commentary is so much easier to those points you are making, thanks

Sorry Found this video late! CoinHelpU Thank you this video! You sure got my attention, specially with those Morgan Dollars!🎈Yes!👍🎈🎈

Keep the videos coming, they're very informative.

Love all your videos. Thanks for sharing... Please cover more vam. Thanks

After buying Morgan and Peace Dollars online for years now I have found 3 honest auctions that don’t sell problem coins without a disclaimer. You’re right about the large number of people who use trick photography. I solely stay with the people who I trust and have built a great customer client relationship. I just hate to receive problem coins.

Good info. I don't think I'll be sending any in. For awhile maybe they can get on the same page

Thanks. I hav a roll of 81s we bought in the early 80s that I now know would grade ms65. Possibly higher but not much point when we don’t plan on selling.

Thank you and happy New Year !

Great video and info on Morgan dollars..thanks for sharing your knowledge

I want our hobby's community to reflect the concept that you're putting forth - a fair playing field coupled with some honesty...and as soon as we get China forgeries flooding our market or people being dishonest with their photos online - something needs to be done about it!

Thankyou. That was helpful.😀

GRADE THE Ellis Island 6 Coin Set for Values? Dad's GRADE Everything.. I'm a Reluctant Grader! 😉 THANKS Again for Your Inspiring Interests in Grading! 😉

I recently subscribed because I appreciate your knowledge and integrity of application. One thing I would like to see more of: to make a video (or series)...just on (likely) "details" grading for Morgans. Honestly, I'm a bit disgusted with the third party graders: I see graded Morgan after Morgans that are getting 62, 63, even 64...and they are dull and grey and ugly as (fill in the blank! They look every bit as likely as cleaned, as any other I've seen!) And then I'll see really quite attractive Morgans (that are also MS) but are beautiful, and often with nice luster, get "details cleaned" or "scratched"...or one I'd had recently: "obv. cleaned UNC". It was heart-breaking due to the rarity of the coin...and where (apparently) it was some tiny little hairline-patch. And yet reading the ANA's own manual on this, they allow for small hairline patches. And that tiny patch (could just as easily been caused by it rubbing against something in a dresser for years). It shouldn't be the way it is...and I don't know how to avoid these (seemingly constant) "details" grade.

Another good video good job

Great video! Very informative. I am trying to decide if I going to get my 1878 CC graded.

hello,I see ur point on the video. that's good info.

I'm getting caught up on some of these older videos.. Great Information, I'm a the point of wanting to submit a handful of Morgan's for submission, just not sure of the best route!? Wish you were down the road ! Thanks for sharing your thoughts/knowledge !! Keith in the Salt City KS

It's a little picky on the rattler MS 65. Those marks are off the cheek proper, but I still would have given this a 64+ eyeing it.

Daniel I just want say how much I enjoy watching your videos let me just say I started collecting about a year ago n you are my go to when I need information I'm still learning lol I just watched your video on the Morgan Dollar as a matter a fact I was wondering if you could take a look at them and tell me what you think I have 3 1884,1885 n a 1921 I would really love your opinion on them if I should get them Graded thank you look forward hearing from you

I'm a collector not an investor. I have all 95 business strikes ranging from an 1893S ungraded VG8 to an 1885 graded MS67. I bought them as needed to complete my collection and bought them as is which is mostly ungraded. As a collector and not an investor I have no interest in sending them in for grading. I bought several pre Morgan silver dollars that were detail graded and not given a numerical grade but a detail grade such as "XF details". I was able to get some nice looking coins at a reduced price this way. Many of these early coins have been around a long time and many times cleaned 200 or more years ago.

Great videos.. I pretty much stopped buying morgans off of ebay. My first few coins were the obviously cleaned, shiny ones. Thought i was getting some good stuff. I only wanted 1 roll, and throughout the 20 purchases, there was a change as i learned about cleaned coins, and obvious crockery on Ebay. Recently took my roll in to a shop and i have about 5 that arent cleaned, Yikes! No key dates, got the better ones around $25 in mid-AU. It seems the shittier they look (on ebay) the better. A TON of camera magic out there!

This was a really helpful video, thank you! Are there many non Facebook sites that are good to buy from?

Great Morgan Video!

If I buy key dates and even most semi key dates, I will come to someone like you I can trust. eBay and other auction places are just too risky. Sure a few get lucky but most don't. Just not worth that chance to me.

Hello There Daniel, What do you think about grading THE Columbus five dollar gold coin + Silver Columbus? Dad GRADED ALL the silver b'day gold commemorative coins in NGC, PCGS PR70s?!? Could any Good Come from The Grading of U.S.Mint Set Coins?! How?

Great video Very Informative

Good Video! Thanks Daniel

I bought a Morgan Coin about a month ago, and paid $100 for it. It appeared with high luster and beautiful but when it arrived, it was horrible. I responded my sentiments to the seller and he refunded me back after I sent the coin back.

Reluctant Grader Collector

Do they factor in previous grades given for mintage?

Huge difference in the MS 65's but to be fair one is graded by ICG and the other is by PCGS ya know? Some people won't agree with me but that's what I think...

Do you think exchanging some Morgan's for 1/10 gold bought years ago 4_5$ most were UNC or _58-60s. Lots of o s.no cc.🤔do have some gold . Bought them knowing paper is fiat .as per Howard ruff.

Enjoyed the instructional videos I have watched so far. Do you have knowledge of a dealer for Canadian coins with some of your ideals and integrity?

Absolutely beautiful coins, thank you and I would love to support by subscribing. See you soon Daniel

I wonder if they'll ever go to computer photo scanning for grading? There seems to be a vast difference between coin graders in these Professional Services. Thinking establish a scanning grade I think would be more accurate way grade coins. I see a lot of people resubmit coins and they come back a different grade because of human judgment which differs very much.

Daniel, I'm a new collector, I've got a Morgan 1894-o, it's marked AU on the 2x2 it came in. my question is should I send this in to be graded ? I'm hopeful to make some money with it. Your input is greatly appreciated. Scott

I have 400 from 1878-1895. Fifty years old . Every ten years I pull them out and think I should get them evaluated.

Enjoy all of your videos. Where is your shop located?

Nice

Daniel, what would you personally find more desirable: an AU Morgan that’s virtually flawless with great eye appeal, OR an MS that’s full of dings and bag marks? I was just wondering what would be generally favored on the market.

So what did those coins actually sell for?

I have a 1883-cc ANACS MS64 DMPL. I really would like someone to look at it. I wanted to send it into PCGS but I worry.

If they go to a computerized grading system, the TPG's would lose millions in their resubmission game. I agree that's how it should be, but they'll fight that guaranteed! Not sure if it is true, but I heard there was a system like that in the late 80's or 90's, but it didn't last long.

Pcgs has videos for teaching how to grade coins . It seems to me , it could be used to figure out answers to some questions you have voiced about aparant inconsistencies . i know the human factor is oary of that too. i figure you would already know about this, but maybe forgot it was a thing. Is icg a "stay away" grading company ? I can never remember the 4th company thats ok to consider...pcgs,ncg, anacs and .....what?

How about showing some coins that you turned in and what they sold for at the auction house?

I have a real soft cloth that I wipe all my coins with. No scrubbing, no chemicals and type of cleaner. Just a dusting cloth. Does that hurt my coins? I sure hope not. Please let me know. Thanks

Do you sell on Ebay, Daniel?

I still really like your site. Is it possible that YOU has a 1953 penny with zinc or steel and look at the site where the man gave his 1990's penny to the government. What's up with that ? SILVER HOUND says u got to believe.

If a coin had a great strike and very few marks. Can the luster be brought back and how does it affect the grade without it?

Daniel...i told you the answer. PCGS even said your eyes are your eyes. Remember..mr. Deeds with Adam Sandler. I see CRAZY eye's all the time with myself. I get up and take a hour break then. Don't make that pizza LADY have to straighten you out.Smile.i love the movie. ❤your buddy (I am a girl buddy) in pa. ❤

I have 1886 morgan dollar 0 mint mark is this value and how to sell this coin in right price

Hello sir i have my coin but i dont know what kind of this coin its big coin 3 inches saint gaudene 1907 roman newmiral but fhis.coin is zinc is this coin is fake

ICG = I can't grade

There are some really good fakes out there so the one way I’ve found to weed them out is to weigh them. Although scammers have gotten good at it they can’t seem to get past the scale (yet).

What about 1898

1886 coin Dekhte chai

.i got 1921 morgan how much value

I have a coin ( of course I do) however...getting back to the cleaning.I am trying very hard Daniel to take a few pictures of it. It is a 3 PENCE....FILTHLY AS DIRT...IT IS HEAVY AND A SIZE MAYBE AS A HALF DOLLAR. I FOR THE LIFE OF ME WILL NOT TRY TO CLEAN IT. . THE DATE IS QUESTIONABLE....I WOULD BE ALSO IF I WERE OVER A HUNDRED YEARS OLD. WHY WOULD A HUMAN NOT LOVE THAT COIN FOR ITS APPROPRIATE AGE? BOGGLES MY MIND BOYFRIEND ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

He has a dollar Flower Hair 1794

The MS62 looks like Morgan's boasting a beard, that's why. It's al about location, location location. Eye appeal, especially with the Morgans.

Morgan 1898

I like your videos, but I think it could be confusing that you say "don't clean coins"; then, you call a nice coin "very clean".

All circulated coins have been cleaned at some point, somehow. Non-issue.

Hi Daniel ,This grading guys are drunk, You would never know how do they grade your coins. Especially key date coins.

anyone want to purchase my ms-65 morgan??. Graded by PCGS

63 judge probably got a little the night before....

I found 20 of them i want to know how can i know their value so i can sell them if ur interested on buying some contact me

After watching this guy I lost my interest in coin collecting. If u can't trust pcgs and ngc or even anacs who can u trust. Its It's nearly impossible to get this information.

I know all my dollar coins are junk
