    I would say EF to AU, looks a bit cleaned but can't tell for sure. Value...around 20 dollars I think.

    PS. Did you get that CC Morgan you were talking about?

    Hi wcoins,

    Thanks for the input on the Borneo coin.

    I did not buy the CC Morgan. The guy selling it rents a tiny little display cabinet in an antique consignment store here locally. He typically prices his coins about 10-20% lower than retail. I have bought a few.

    Something in my gut just didn't feel right... the price... having "lite cleaning"... etc. along with the fact on both days I visited the shop there were several people looking very hard at that coin but not pulling the trigger.

    He also has an uncirculated CC Morgan for sale sealed by the General Services Administration (GSA) branch of the government. He's asking $550. See pic below. gsa morgan cc.jpg
