    Here's my latest.

    1884-CC GSA Morgan

    A gorgeously reflective 1882 Morgan that I think has a GREAT chance at DMPL.

    And an 1878 7/8TF VAM-30 Morgan Dollar. This baby has mirrors you could shave with. My biggest concern for DMPL is the obverse, its fields are not as flat and are more dish like, causing a distortion. Otherwise it's a headlight for sure!

    Oh, I almost forgot this cherrypick. It's an UNC MS-62/63 1922 Peace Dollar VAM-1F Break in the Field on the reverse. It's a mid die state for this particular VAM.

    @DBDc80. OK, I give up. What is this? I see an Easter Island Tiki totem on the obverse and an elephant on the reverse. I'm guessing this commemorates Hannibal getting lost and washing up on the shores of Polynesia.

    I love clashed Morgans. All the clashes on this one are doubled. I cant recall seeing that before.

    The holder is in shockingly good condition. I really dont know the details on the age/gen of the slab. But I have always wanted one of these “rattlers”.

    Won on Ebay auction from Liberty Coin (who I have purchased directly from) for $60 delivered.

    I wasn’t too serious about it, but I believe it’s a gen 1.2 holder from the late 80s. You can compare the different holder types here: https://www.pcgs.com/holders

    Nifty little site.

    Yup.... pale green ribbed stock, perforated edges, dot matrix printer.

    It’s kinda crazy to think that was slabbed 31-34 years ago. I was in the 5th grade in 1986 lol

    I think so. I quickly went through them and also landed on this one. Although the clashed “n” on the neck is very, very, very subtle. Obviously the clashed wing at the neck is doubled and loud. The comments say that happens on a later die state.

    The roughness and lines in the eagle neck - wing gap are there.

    @messydesk Do you think 6a?

    @okbustchaser Sorry for cheating, but I just couldn't resist. She was so attractive.

    1877 Gold Dollar, mintage = 3900, survival estimate = 325 coins
