[QUOTE="Drusus, post: 694254, member: 6370"]okay, thanks for the educated guess...My guess was similar to yours, low MS-60's and told him I thought it was probably worth well under 100 USD but I judge a coin by these grading standards so seldom I am not the best person to ask. As for the toning...there is no doubt that no one purposefully toned this coin as the current owner has had it wrapped in a paper towel and stored in a jar for almost 50 years (which IMO probably caused the toning)...he cant remember if it was toned like this when he got it as he was a kid then and wasnt that interested and the previous owner (his father) certainly didn't do anything to it.

Nice looking coin for a Morgan regardless of the value and if anyone else has any other opinions, I am interested...thanks[/QUOTE]
