<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 2128292, member: 13650&quot;]There are currently a total of 10 Battle creek Morgans for sale on ebay.&nbsp;&nbsp; Only 2 of them have extraordinary toning and are priced in 4 figure range.&nbsp; &nbsp; No impressive toners in the current Binion hoard offerings or Lincoln.&nbsp; &nbsp; I did a quick search for Battle creek Morgans to see if I could find any more for sale anywhere.&nbsp; Got a few old auctions that were long since sold with no pics.&nbsp; &nbsp; I don&#039;t know where you&#039;d go to browse more if you wanted one right now.&nbsp;&nbsp; I own one of them.&nbsp;&nbsp; That concludes my search for the low hanging fruit.&nbsp;&nbsp; Easily identifiable, high end toners.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; So I moved on to a different ebay search.&nbsp;&nbsp; &quot;NGC toned Morgan&quot; to see what I could find.&nbsp;&nbsp; 1,264 results.&nbsp; Now I&#039;m not going to take the time to go through it all,&nbsp; but I quickly scanned through the first two pages, being a total of 100 coins.&nbsp; &nbsp; Out of these 100, a total of <u><b>3</b></u> stood out as being decent.&nbsp;&nbsp; Only <b>1 of the 3</b> I&#039;d be somewhat interested in purchasing but not enough to even put on the watch list.&nbsp;&nbsp; I&#039;d say over 90% have little to no color at all.&nbsp; &nbsp; Of course, I did not search PCGS or ANACS, or name your company, but I suspect the results are the same.&nbsp; &nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp; Another factor in this is the likelihood that most good stuff is already sold and stashed away in people&#039;s collections.&nbsp; Not coming on the market any time soon.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; I have to lean towards the conclusion from my experience poking around looking at Morgans over the years, that good toners are fairly rare.&nbsp;&nbsp; Id say this even if the consensus here was the opposite.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
