Post Your Morgan Dollars

I try to make a better photograph of my 1879 o Morgan.
I think this one is my better shot.

Thank you Collector1966;

And yes I do have a little flower icon on my camera. I will test it out tonight on some coins and see how the photos turn out!

 

hows this one

 

A product of the infamous "COWBOYUP". The largest seller of artificially toned coins on eBay. But if you like the toning, don't let anyone tell you it's not beautiful.

 

Did he take that pic or did he find it?

 

1921 Morgan

Pick this Morgan up a few years back in a misc box at a coin show. Not high grade but it is clean and I like it.

I just got my first CC today!

 

Meeting in the gameroom lobby...alll invited

 

Newp 1883 CC. I'm starting to really get into these CC DMPLs. This one is as nice as the 1884 CC in MS65 I posted earlier but without the hefty price. I will be keeping my eyes peeled for other ones in 63 as this is a great coin for the grade/money in my opinion.

 

keep posting gang!!

1896-O Vam#15
I just sent to be Detailed Pcgs.

 

I just pulled my 1885-CC Morgan (from the GSA sale in the 1970's) out of my safe depost box and photographed it. I havent really looked at it that much in the past 30 years (sad isnt it). No idea on the grade on this but I am guessing that PCGS might assign an MS63? The reverse looks cleaner than the obverse.

It's interesting but the grade really doesn't affect that value that much on this date/mint combination as a PCGS shows the following prices for the 1885-CC Morgan in their online price guide:

G4 = $600
F12 = $615
VF40 = $630
MS62 = $665
MS63 = $675
MS64 = $715

I think you would be hard pressed to find another coin (series/date/mint combination) over 100 years old where there is such a small spread between a G4 ($600) and an MS64 ($715)! (Although maybe there are other Morgans in a similar boat?)

So funny that I cannot remember how much I paid for this back in the 1970's but cointalk member Conder posted that he recalls these were sold by the GSA for $60 -- that's a bargain. I am guessing this might bring $600+ on the open market today.

When compared to all CC Morgans, the 1885-CC actually had the lowest mintage (238,000) -- however because it was included in the GSA sale where hoards of Unc's were released, it's a lot more common (and less expensive) than some of the other CC dates (1879-CC, 1889-CC, and 1893-CC).

When compared to the entire Morgan series, the 1885-CC has the 3rd lowest mintage of any date/mint combination, only eclipsed by the 1893-S (100,000) and 1894 (110,972) -- I'm not including the 1895 which was Proof only and not a business strike.

Redflields are hard to find in any grade!!

Most of my Morgan Dollars are raw. I would say that 90% of them are. I have carefully selected them in order to have them certified and graded by a TPG in the near future. I just can't decide which ones I want to have graded first!
