Hey everyone...! I just recently bought this MOrgan dollar.. Link is below:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120331694539&_trksid=p2759.l1259

Do you guys think I did alright? It's 28.50US/43AUS.. I'm not sure if I got burnt or not.. Also does anyone know the VAM of it? Seems there are a lot of 'die clashes' (I think thats what its called) connecting the letters? Thanks for any help and feedback :)

If their grade of MS-62 was accurate then I'd say you did alright. But I have dial-up and a crappy computer, so it was taking forever for the pics to show up. So I don't know how I would grade it.

It appears to have Die cracks joining some of the letters on the Rev.  Can't see any on the Obv.

I saw the reverse, and it looks like better than MS-62 to me. I couldn't see the obverse though. What am I missing?
