The 1903 is shiny, but I suppose a heavy dose of polish and violently wiping it will do that. The 1931 is much more of a chocolately brown color....
I have no doubts about that! I am still a beginner in numismatics (about a year into it) but I'm happy to have some far more knowledgeable folks...
99% sure it's been cleaned/polished (or both) :nailbiting: and about 98.9% sure it's not a proof, but I couldn't pass it up for $5.00. It looks...
Are these miniature cuds? Nothing spectacular, but no evidence of rim impact or damage. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Greetings everyone! I hope you've all been doing well! With having gotten a few decent jobs of late, I thought a little bit of a reward was in...
The LCS guy knows I'm particular to raw Morgans so he'll point out any new additions he's got when I walk in. I was picking some out and I asked...
Here's a bunch of pictures of the fake 1899, several with some raw comparison-specimens that I think they were maybe trying to duplicate in some...
I'll grab some pictures of it and post it soon.
Entry post Thank you once again for your generosity! If I'm the lucky one, I think I will choose the Morgan again. Best of luck to everyone!
That's a purty Morgan you've got there!
I actually like seeing, although rarely purchase, pocket pieces. It takes quite a long time to gently wear down a coin to still be recognizable,...
Depending upon how much you want to spend, start at the top! Business strike 1893-S, baby! If you're really wanting to show off, get a proof 1895...
I'm going to post something that has nothing to do with coins, but I can almost promise you that you've never seen it before! Without going into...
Hi again everyone! Been a little while since I've posted, so I think I'll stop the drought and share my pickups from today. Two Morgans (1880-S &...
I think that toning would warrant the +grade, but that's just my opinion. Regardless, that's definitely a beautiful coin no matter how you shake...
I'm going to guess 64+. Looks like a beautiful coin with that toning!
I do like the idea of some actual history in this coin, in that it was used for some time. A very brief time, most likely, but still used.
Thanks! Their imaging put my own to shame. I sent this one instead of the ''85-CC GSA because I thought it looked like it stood a chance of...
I had personally anticipated a higher grade than this, but I show you the elusive AU-58. More pictures of the slab to follow, sometime tomorrow....
I don't see why not. This is kinda fun actually. I do enjoy seeing everyone's guesses, comparing them to my own prior sending out, and waiting for...
