    I posted it on the PCGS forum but one of my Morgans is an 1887-s MS 65 but has "Bermuda" written on it. I always just assumed it was a Pedigree of some big collector who got PCGS to give him a special label. I recall finding a registry set that was called "Bermuda" on PCGS for Morgans. I'm just curious the story on this coin. Who owned the set an any special history to it?

    I'm pretty sure you are correct. Maybe it was his original before he upgraded?

    Jumpin' Jeehoziephats, man! I mean, I know 1880- and 1881-S Morgans come nice, but... wow!

    That actually looks pretty decent for a Warnick "caught in the wild".

    Found others on Heritage but none of listings seem give any details. Maybe the collector wanted to remain anonymous even in death
