    My wife's comment after she sign for this coin. Bob, I thought you said you were were going to stop purchasing coins, stamp and money. I'm 80 years old

    The San Francisco mint also made non-silver proof coins. Might want to check the edge and weight. The silver ones are 6.3 grams versus 5.67 grams non-silver.

    A new 79-S to add to my collection of rusty looking high grade Morgans which I'm into for some reason.

    7.99 free shipping on Ebay.... It'll be heading off to @jtlee321 hopefully soon for its few minutes of fame :)

    You have no idea how long it took to capture the toning.... And I still can't capture it all....

    You like "rusty" looking Morgan's huh? This one even has a neat planchet flaw too

    Nice definitely like it!

    Yeah something about rusty looking Morgans I'm into, maybe because some are 100 years older than I am and it makes them show their age. The nice thing is I think I'm in the minority cause I don't seem to have a lot of bidder competition on the few I've grabbed like that.

    Here's my favorite one from just a few weeks ago:

    Another 66 and the toning is wild. Also need sunglasses when looking at it. Think it had one other bidder and I got it for $185
