The BIN is way high for a 63, (and imo that type of toning shouldn't really bring a premium). The last 63 (NGC) sold yesterday on Heritage for...
I've seen it done with toned coins, it's also done with error coins (when the error is on the reverse).
I think this is what the seller was talking about. Not the GSA holder itself, but the blue and silver cardboard box the holder comes in. The hinge...
Nice Morgan! :thumb: I think the price was fair. I could easily see myself paying that price for that coin.
It's even higher than the S set high examples, it's probably VAM-27, which is the S set very high variety (unfortunately there are no pics on...

Lol, I didn't even see the price until you said that.
No such thing as a 1879-S over O variety.
I got a 37 :D. That's the highest, right? So I win. I did feel kind of bad trying to get a higher bonus after my company did worse, but that's...
Awesome. :)
Lol, I'll have to try tonight, I hope they'll have enough cash for my change :goofer:.
