Definitely not a 1969-S DDO
An experienced collector shouldn't be fooled by those pictures. Go to any of the major auction sites and look at the hundreds of Morgans that are...
True, but some people are able to live with things that others won't. Some people are able to overlook things others can't. Coin collecting is...
I owned a 31-S once that graded MS64 RB and was an absolutely beautiful coin except for a single carbon spot near the date. I was able to buy it...
