Post Your Morgan Dollars

Could have been sent in for grading before and came back as damaged if it's bad enough or long enough ago. Given what makes its way into a 63 slab these days, and the excellent fields and booming luster (At least in the photos) of this coin, I think it would hit 63 at a minimum.

Nice coins MorganMan...keep 'em coming!

 

1889 Raw

 

Thanks Race, appreciate it. I just started working at a coin shop and now I get to see all of the Morgans that come thru. Like being a kid in a candy store. Too bad I can't afford everything I like that comes thru. Although I have picked up 3 Carson City Morgans. 2 are in the GSA cases an '82 and an '84. I picked up a raw 1883CC that I'm going to send in to have graded. Hoping to get it graded at least MS-63 PL.

 

Raw 1879-S that I will be sending in to have
graded also.

 

Cheater :hail: My wife would not be happy because I'd be bringing home more coins than a paycheck.

 

I will go with my 1879 morgan because I love the character of this coin.

 

Yeah, you have no idea as to how hard it is trying to practice "restraint". A couple of the guys just went to the FUN show in Florida. If I went to the FUN show, I would have taken out a second mortgage on my house before I left, and would've come back with some really nice Morgans, and a really ticked off wife.

 

I just got to FUN. Last year I came home with IOU's after blowing all my funds day one. Hopefully this year I will be busy and wont spend as much.

 

Todd,

I have been meaning to ask you a question and your post about the FUN sale just reminded me. While parousing the Heritage FUN auction catalog, I came across some incredibly toned 1880-S Morgan Dollars. The peculiar part was that the photos just don't fit the profile of a typical Heritage photo. After looking at them online, they immediately struck me as your work. Does Heritage hire you to perform photographic services for toned coins and more importantly, can a consignor request that their coins be photographed by you?

Here are the links to the three lots that look like your work to me.

My 1st Pl Morgan Dollar 1890 then I noticed
this one I've forgotten about...Not PL but maybe semi-PL
but any how I thought I would share.
Side not I do like the old ANACS White Holders

 

My nicely toned 1878 S Still can't get pictures to properly represent the colors

 

That 90 is a good date!!!

 

Here's mine, probably an MS-63. That hit on the nose might be a bit too much for choice. Bought raw in an airtite for $25. Nice little purchase.

 

keep posting gang!!

It maybe one of the new 1880-S John Roberts of Anacs is writing about in his new Vam additions book
or
just a coin hit

 

Hello Jello,
Do you have anymore information on this Vam additions book?

Thanks,
Steve

 

It might have to do with his talk at 3:30 Friday at FUN on 11 VAMs for 2011.

 

Not yet but hope to soon!!!
