    What do you think of this toning? Tough to show it in an image.

    I liked the strike on this coin, but it sure is dark.

    Nice example of pull away toning, a very attractive coin.

    I rarely buy Morgans, but I couldn't resist this EOR toning.
    Looks like a decent grade too.

    Thank you guys for all the kind words about this one! I don't know the series well (I got this one as a Type coin), but IMO this sure looks higher than the plastic grade. I bought it years ago in a Fatty NGC. A couple of years ago I crossed it to PCGS in the slab. In both cases it was graded MS63FH. There are no significant marks on it. I can only guess that the slight darkness of the toning is holding it back.

    Pcgs is very hard on toned coins. Skyman your lucky Pcgs kept the MS 63 FH . I've seen Pcgs pull the Full Head of an Ngc graded one more than once.
