Now you would not say that if this was not a modern coin. The fact is that there have been almost 10,000 1977-S Proof Ike's graded by PCGS. Over...
Well that comment sir only serves to prove you don't know the first thing about bag toned Morgans. The toning is original with a stain on the...
On the contrary, this is the first error coin I have ever seen that actually improved the aesthetic appeal of the original design. The SBA is one...
Here is a photo of the "T" designation. [IMG] Here is the ultra cool re-holdered double desingation ("T" & *) pedigreed coin. [IMG] Check out...
Richie, Do you remember the thread a few weeks ago that discussed the "T" designation that NGC used to denote toning. The "W" designation was...
The ANACS slabbed coin is overgraded. The reverse is MS63 or MS64 at best. The obverse should also not be above MS64 due to the major...
The fact that bags existed with mixed mint marks does not mean that every bag contained mixed mint marks and does not make it common unless we...
Yeah I know, but it is still very improbable. The coins were minted 3000 miles apart. First they would somehow have to find their way into the...
I doubt that Doug. I bought the 1886 in 2001 from Heritage and it is holdered in an old small ANACS slab. Either a body bag from NGC or the...
I have a degree in Metallurgy from Lehigh University and specialized in corrosion. The toning is natural and very consistent with bag toning on...
Well the toning looks great to me. The color progression is right (yellow-magenta-cyan) and it lays deeply on the surface. The toning pattern...
Not that uncommon. [IMG] :smile
Superb, those 64's really toned up nicely don't they!
Ok, time to guess the grade of another rainbow toned Morgan Dollar. [IMG][IMG] :D
Maybe I should have specified important in a good way. I don't consider the end of circulating gold or silver worthy of celebration, although I...
That coin is 100% AT and not very pretty IMO. Want pretty, look at my toned Morgan Album. Now back on topic. I have the 1999 Silver Proof...

There are still some very nice coins available for less than $50. High grade Jefferson Nickels and Roosevelt Dimes come to mind. Gem state...
I think it sounds like a great opportunity to learn from someone with extensive experience. However, there are probably elements of a modern day...
No way, this was a purely educational exercise. I don't own a single one of these, not even the Morgan.
