    I just picked these up today. I could not resist breaking up the pair. I did not own an example of this slab yet.

    Quick story about these old PCI slabs . . .

    I once bought an 1853-O No Arrows H10c in one of these older PCI holders, graded VF20. I knew the coin was conservatively graded and, more importantly, I absolutely loved the look of the coin. I also knew the coin was scarce, and would be easy to sell. I had no idea at that time just how rare a pleasing example of this date is, especially in middle grades. I turned the coin over for a reasonable profit, but far less than it is truly worth. I have only once since that time seen another on the same grade range that I wanted to buy . . . and bid too low.

    I'd forgotten all about that coin until I saw your photos of those holders . . . sigh.

    I buy these PCI slabs when ever I can, if I see one with an h 10 it will be mine. I'm always on the look out for these with other than Morgans in them.
    However every one I have purchased no matter the grade on the holder have been winners! Each have been at least a grade higher or a hot or top vam.
    The coins for the most part are slighly toned,around the rim and sometimes in the fields. Needless to say if I spot one at a show...there's a 99% chance it's coming home with me.

    Picked up another Morgan today at a show I had not been to before. It's a raw 1888-O Morgan. Absolutely stunning in hand!

    Very nice! You think it's a shot 65 or higher? That's a nice date/mm in gem +

    I think it should be a lock 65 with a chance at 66. If it had a better strike, I'd call it a lock 66. This date/mm is known for it's satiny luster which this one is full of.

    I backtracked on this one. This is the first peace dollar, that I've purchased in a good while. My collection needed it.
