Common year with some nice coloring on the reverse. Had to angle the reverse to show. However, in hand looks much prettier.
1891 O MS 63 Morgan Known as one of the worst quality wise, in the series. I was fortunate finding this one.
Sold off about 10 of my early purchased coins in the last week. Had to replace them with something! 1885-O Ratty 1905 MS62, I think it has enough hits to where 61-62 is fair but man this is a pretty one in hand it just shines. Also grabbed a 1900-0 MS65, 1889 MS65 and 1884-O MS66 but don't have in hand yet. They may be common dates but love 65+s in Morgans, was happy to trade in 10 lower graded ones (plus some cash) for all this. Officially have sold, lost money on, and learned a lesson on every coin I've regretted buying so far. You evolve quick lol
Picked this up, she's old enough and the cost differential is great enough that it doesn't really bother me that someone gave her a wipe in the past.
In that it looks better than 62? Pictures are spot on and like I said coin shines in hand. If it's overgraded lucky for me. Not because it's worth that much more since it's staying with me anyways but because I wasn't going over $300 and a grade bump would have priced me out and I love the coin and glad to have it in the collection
Gotcha, yeah thought mine had enough hits for 61-62 but I really have no clue how to grade gold coins only have 4 so far so was all ears if it was off
Here are some more Newps from Baltimore: A pretty toned 1888 Morgan . . . A tougher 1914 Quarter Eagle in high grade . . . A super toned PQ 1892-S Gold $10 Lib . . .
Finally, the last of my Newps: A gorgeous toned 1857 half eagle . . . much nicer than the photos convey. A PQ 1947-D BTW . . . just before I bought it, the prior owner started attacking the slab with a nibbler, so the coin needs to be re-holdered. A slam dunk upgrade 1897-S Morgan . . .
What a lovely (in my Humble opinion) the second prettiest coin our country ever made Standing Liberty Quarter!!! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk
Warms my heart to see your 1915 5 ore. I have a type collection of 5 ores. I became interested in 5 ores when I noticed all the composition changes during WW1 and WW2 ... iron, zinc, and aluminum ... on coins from Denmark, Norway and Sweden. Seems the demand for copper during the WW's facilitated the changes. There is a 1941 Denmark copper 5 ore struck in Britain for the then British occupied, Danish territory, Faroe Islands. The homeland 1941 Denmark issue 5 ore, from German occupied Denmark, had an aluminum composition. Similar with Iceland, a Danish territory at the start of WW2, the Brits struck a copper 1942 and 1944 5 aurar for British occupied Iceland.
