AboutMyCoin1902-O Morgan Dollar in VG10
A 1902-O Morgan dollar graded VG10 is that coin in one particular state of preservation — the date and the mint mark are already fixed, and VG10 is what a grader called the surface that survived. What that looks like on this coin is below. The nearest grade of this date this site does have a researched figure for is Very Good (VG-8), at $36 to $82, from sales and public data.
What VG10 means
A 1902-O Morgan dollar in Very Good (VG-10) is a Very Good coin at the better end of the grade: the hair above Liberty’s ear and the cotton bolls in her cap are smooth as they are at eight, but a little of the eagle’s individual wing and breast feathers and the leaves of the wreath survives where the design was struck deepest, and LIBERTY on the headband, E PLURIBUS UNUM and the date and the rim are bold. Both Very Good rungs describe a heavily worn coin that is nonetheless complete and easy to read.
A slab, a dealer’s list or a price guide may write this grade VG-10. They are the same grade and the same 1902-O Morgan dollar.
Where this grade sits
The grades a 1902-O Morgan dollar is given run from PO1 to MS70. One step up from VG10 is Fine (F-12), at $40 to $89 — which is what a reader whose coin might grade a point higher is really asking. In general terms, the higher the grade the more the coin is worth.
A blank in the value column is a grade this site has not researched, not a grade the coin is worth nothing in.
