<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 2118979, member: 15309&quot;]Brandon,</p><p><br /></p><p>While that is a fantastic coin with superb toning, I agree that the price is totally over the top.&nbsp; First of all, it looks like an MS64 with a grade bump for the toning.&nbsp; I don&#039;t have a problem with the grade mind you, but the cleanliness of the coin should factor into the premium paid.&nbsp; The originality of the toning is really not in question.&nbsp; It shows proper color scheme and progressions for a bag toned Morgan, it has proper elevation chromatics, and it has pull away toning.&nbsp; Additionally it was graded before the existence of the toned coin market.&nbsp; I am starting to wonder whether the fact that this coin resides in a rattler slab has anything to do with the price realized.&nbsp; Another factor might be some unknown provenance to us, but known to the bidders.&nbsp; Is this a former Sunnywood coin?</p><p><br /></p><p>No matter what the circumstances, I would value that coin between $1,500-$2,000.&nbsp; $14K is insane.&nbsp; If I was a friend of the buyer, I would buy him a new shovel every year for Christmas and hope he could unbury himself before his time is up![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
