<p>[QUOTE="Morgandude11, post: 1949014, member: 37839"]No, Doug is absolutely right. Morgans were shoveled by scoops (much as a grocer's scoop) into mint bags to save time. Some of the "heavier hits" on the uncirculated coins are probably not only from coin-to-coin contact, but coin to shovel apparatus contact. Those really heavy contacts that we see on a Morgan that ruins a good grade, or even renders them upgradeable (for uncirculated coins, that is) are probably from exactly what Doug describes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
