<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Joe Campbell, post: 3597894, member: 89857&quot;]Thanks for all the input and info thus far. </p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=1765]@messydesk[/USER] - what am I looking for?&nbsp; Good question. I guess I’m looking for a nice type example of a Morgan for the collection. Probably my criteria are:</p><p>1) value retention - I don’t need to make money, but I don’t like losing it in the long run. Not planning to sell but eventually everything gets sold. </p><p>2) eye appeal incl. strike quality</p><p>3) condition (actual, not necessarily numeric grade)</p><p>4) date/mint - has to be 19th century and prefer a ‘better date’ if possible.</p><p>5) value appreciation - it’s never a bad thing. </p><p><br /></p><p>I’m narrowing down on a couple of options</p><p>a) 1899 P in 65-66+. Has good strikes. Like the low mintage.&nbsp; Somehow being the last date in the 19th century is slightly sexy. </p><p>b) 1882 S in 66-67, maybe PL or DMPL. I love the DMPL look but every tiny hit on the frosted cameo really stand out to me so maybe i’m Better off avoiding PL. 82-S have great strikes and are super cheap in 66-67.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
