    Here is a grouping of some toned Morgans that I picked up recently. The criteria was to assemble a set of toners that were "affordable" and attractive at the same time. I wanted them to be MS coins, but not necessarily super gems. The average grade of these are between 63 and 64, but in my opinion, have considerable attractiveness. I am going to keep seeking out affordable, common date Morgans that look anything but common, and exhibit all the "tarnish" that I find attractive. Who knows--this could be the making of a registry set. For now, they are the "dirty dozen." :)

    Love the 1879-s. I love it when the rim toning "frames" the obverse design.

    New addition to the "dirty dozen," making it a "baker's dozen." Nice purple reverse and rim toning on obverse.
