<p>[QUOTE="Morgandude11, post: 2337457, member: 37839"]As some of you folks know, I am selling my toned coins, so as to start over with a new collection of "White Morgans," and more importantly, to give my son and will-be daughter- in- law a good wedding present. There have been a few extremely successful auctions and will be at least two more. At any rate, I am still collecting Morgans, only different focus--these will be high grade gem common dates. (I have not sold any of the 13CC dates, and have my 5 "safe deposit" box ones). Just the other day, I walked into one of my local coin shops, where I know the owner well. I looked in the Morgan display case, and this one JUMPED out at me. Having just sold a beautifully toned MS 64 1881s, and a MS 63 PL 1881s, it was time for this coin--it just called my name. It became a bargain, when I made the owner an offer 40 dollars under greysheet ask price and he took it. I guess I saved him the eBay fees in doing so. Love the coin, in spite of its commonness, as it is like Frosty the Snowman (looks like it was in a refrigerator for a week), and has really nice mirrors. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]474573[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]474574[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
