Couple of new ones

Finally sent an order to PCGS after using only NGC for a couple months. Only sent 2 coins. Here they are. NGC called the Franklin Artificially Toned. I found it in an old PCI holder, where it obtained the toning. The Morgan was in an OGH MS64PL - no variety on the holder. I lost the PL, but it's still worth more than the $151 I paid for it.

nice ones

 

Agreed both coins have great eye appeal .

 

Beautiful coins, I'm particularly impressed with the Morgan and love seeing varieties.

 

I think NGC is trying to muscle up to a higher level in the TPG market.
Trying crossovers from PCGS isn't working; NGC is just returning them "as is".
Plus soon NGC won't accept ANY other TPG into their Register Sets.
The hobby is becoming less fun.

 

I wonder what those old PCI holders have to cause that toning. I guess an argument could be made for both AT and NT.

 

You never fail to come up with some nice ones.

 

I see nothing AT about that Franklin. It is quite attractive.
