GTG: 1884cc Morgan Dollar

I bet she is jaw dropping sweet in hand. These really need a youtube accompanying them to appreciate their stunning mirrors.

I don’t think it got a huge CC bump. As you become more experienced with PL and DMPL coins, you will find that 1. Conventional photography does not capture their true reflectivity or eye appeal, and 2. Die markers, striations, and polish lines that lead to the creation process of this type of coin often do not show as an accurate grade. In hand it is definitely a true 65. PCGS is careful with CC DMPL grades, as the value of gem grade coins jumps up tremendously. This one doubled over a 64.

 

Got itabsolutely love the coin.

 

Thanks, I really like it. I paid $1200 for it, and recently turned down a $2300 offer from a collector friend for it. Think I will send it off, for the green bean.

 

So, I dont have her twin sister. Maybe her little sister (64 DMPL). Crystal clear mirrors:

 

Great looking coin!

 

That is one gorgeous coin. I love the mirrors and the frost. Stunning!

 

Here are some closer in photos, with the camera boosted 1/2 f stop, and more light. I think this presents my coin better:

 

MS65 DMPL

 

That's the grade given, go back a page and see. Personally, I can't reach it based on these photos, as there are too many areas of white-out, even areas obliterated, as in just the sides off the eagle's neck, and lower-back of the cap. Honestly, I'd have been gone after MS64, based on these photos. @Morgandude11, I think to market this at the assigned grade, you need to darken these, some, bring out more of the contrast, detail. Just my opinion...

 

I understand. The pictures do not capture it. Fortunately, I am not selling it, as it is one of my favorites. After I sold my 93s, so many of my other coins have become focal points of my collection. I do agree with you about pictures. DMPLs are impossible to showcase properly, without a video.

 

I said MS64 PL, but I'm not as good with Morgans as with Saints.

 

This is a coin that costs $1,000 or so because of the DMPL, right ?

 

I voted 64+dmpl before scrolling down to see.. I was close

 

$1200-1500
