The spotting bothers me quite a bit, so I'm a bit lower at 2.4 on this one. I also don't think the "spectrum" of the toning is in the colors that...
I guess I'll join the necro-posters here. :cigar: [IMG]
I was a 3.0 on the Mark. It is exceptional for the particular issue (MS68 and double-sided toner!), but the colors are not of the saturation...
My pics first: [IMG] PCGS’ pictures of the coin (it is not this red in person): [IMG]
I'm in the F-15 camp.
I haven't seen it posted here yet, but this website is pretty awesome to summarize toned Morgan history and some wild monster examples. Maybe it...
A wildly stunning coin. It's a pity that professional images aren't available for it as @Lehigh96 noted. That thing would go for moon money if...

It might be a magnificent coin, but we’re scoring the toning. Those kinds of pics are often highly misleading for toning. I have little doubt it...
I’m at a 4.8 on the IHC given those pics. Axial-like images such as those posted can hide a lot of problems, can overemphasize color that is...
Are you asking about the 100 Lire or the 20 Lire? The one @paddyman98 posted is the 20 Lire, so a weight for comparison to your original 100 Lire...
@SSG_Gonzo I believe you're up next. :D
Clearly a difficult little coin to grade from photos. I agree with the NGC grade, about as close to a gem little coin as you can get. There is...
Which sounds like a fancy way of saying it is untoned. :D
Beautiful coin and strike. But I’m not seeing this supposed “monochromatic toning” - it looks like a lustrous completely untoned coin to me.
The strike is just SOOOO soft on the 2nd one. As a "type coin" the first one wins no question. As a slightly more attractive color, the 2nd one...
