<p>[QUOTE="JPeace$, post: 1841333, member: 42727"]I'm not trying to be critical of your coins. I collect this series and spend a lot of time viewing photos on eBay, Heritage, Stacks, Legend Morphy, David Lawrence, NE Numismatics and any other place I can view coins. I own many 65's, 66's and a couple 67's. I have DPL's as well as some PL's. I'm just starting to get comfortable with purchasing toned Morgan's solely from photos. I do not consider myself an expert either.</p><p> </p><p>I have seen many coins in holders that I just pass on because I don't agree with the grade. You should be very happy with the 1900-O. That's a really nice MS64 and the fields look to be semi-PL as well. I just don't agree with the MS66. The biggest mis-graded Morgan are the ones in GSA Holders. I don't know the thinking behind and I really like NGC's grading of Morgans. They're not perfect by any stretch, but I think they do a better job on DPL and PL designations in this series vs. PCGS.
