So you think this had a shot at 68? I noticed this coin is grainy in places (right side of motto, far right ray). Would such graininess possibly...
I've always been impressed with their listings but have never bought. I've heard several other collectors vouch for their quality, too.
You're right, I'm sure. Wishful thinking on my part. But the coin has several dings in major places; seems silly to me to crack it out.
I should have reworded my post (but I wanted to keep it simple); it was more about whether you viewers would feel comfortable making a decision...

It's kind of moot. One man's dreck will always be another man's treasure.
Well summed up.
That's a whole different topic: paintings made by elephants, apes, various other critters, little kids, etc. That's just novelty that, once again,...
I'd like to add a comment in a different direction, if I could. First, let me say that I love this Morgan toner and would love to own it. I just...
Agreed. It's easy to spend a lot of money if you have it (whether on coins, autos, art, antiques, whatever). Far more difficult (and rewarding, I...
