<p>[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 1586544, member: 15309"]This coin was the subject of a similar <a href="http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=6194313&nt=4&fpart=1" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=6194313&nt=4&fpart=1" rel="nofollow">thread on the NGC forums</a> recently. While the toning is interesting and attractive, I don't think it conforms to the standards for what is considered "market acceptable" for Morgan Dollars and am strongly in the camp that believes that it would likely end up in a genuine holder upon resubmission. I think it is worth a premium, but at the $1,200 price tag, I believe that the new owner is buried and destined to lose money when they sell. </p><p><br /></p><p>This is also not a coin that I would like to purchase based solely upon a photo. The appearance of that type of toning can look very different in hand and the originality of the toning is much easier to ascertain in hand as well.
