<p>[QUOTE="RnCJ, post: 772522, member: 21480"]Thank you all for your valuable input. I, of course, do not have a fraction of the expertise the PCGS graders have, but I see this is a hot issue over the past year or so. I only know it looked good in the store compared to many of the few dozen or so other Morgans they had and the store seems reputable. My assumption as to why the toning is so symmetrical is that it spent some time in an album or roll, which affected the coin evenly from the rim inwards.
