What would you value this morgan at? I am considering picking it up. Would this be considered DMPL? TYVM
There are rare occasions where you can find a toned Morgan attributed DMPL, but it is very unlikely that this one will get the nod. It is too heavily toned. Chris
This is something I have found that might help.... http://coins.about.com/od/uscoins/f/proof_morgans.htm It is a very nice coin none the less either way it is graded. Thomas
Kind of blunt, but I'm agreeing with Todd... Not a chance in the world that'd make DMPL. OP, what made you think that coin had a shot at making "DMPL" with a resubmission? ... Just curious, because if anything, those OGH's are more accurate (if not generous) when it comes to numerical grades, color (bronze coinage), and mirror-depth. -Brian
Here is one thing on the images. The obv is tilted to the light, if DMPL the color would explode, instead it is muted indicating no mirror below the surface. The rev shows no depth to it and is hazy, would also hurt the DMPL chances. On the other hand the color may be fantastic. This coin has some real potential but to call it DMPL is not correct. If advertised as DMPL I would question the seller about it. If truly a DMPL no way it would still be in a rattler holder. The difference in a 65 and 65DMPL that year is substantial.
$240-$250 would be fair. The luster looks somewhat muted, but to the right person, the toning may command a premium. Personally, I don't find the toning attractive. If you're looking for an attractively-toned coin, I think you could find a much nicer example with a li'l huntin'. Remember, this is just my personal opinion... -Brian
That thing ain't worth a dime more than $300.00, and that's seriously pushing it, IMO. Maybe the photos don't do the coin justice... And if that's not so, then seller simply overpayed. -Brian
Yeah.. I really liked this one. Even better than the 85-0, but no way I'm paying near what he wants. He rejected an offer of 325.
