[QUOTE="kanga, post: 575184, member: 9270"]It's a bit slow this morning so I decided to start a show-and-tell thread. I'll add items maybe twice a week. You won't see the most pristine examples you've ever seen, but you will see the best that I figure I'll ever own. The first coin will be a 1893-S Morgan. I believe that I got it in the last half of the 70's and I remember it costing me $750. I can also remember thinking I can't tell my wife how much I spent on it :eek: Turns out to have probably been my best ever purchase in terms of value growth. A professional appraiser (former major TPG grader) told me that for the grade it is an exceptional coin. Apparently most 1893-S coins in this grade have LOTS of detracting scratches/marks. Here it it: [IMG]http://home.comcast.net/~dcderoo/100-1893s-G6-Final-txt.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
