Some sweet Franklin two thumbs up! that 55 is boss!

 

I was watching that one while it was still at auction. Beautiful piece

 

I was watching that one too. If I remember correctly, the same seller had a LOT of nicely toned 1887 Morgans.

 

Excited about this 1929S I just won at auction. It is hard to find a 29-S with nice toning. The toning isn't monster, but it is pleasant and original. I had seen this coin in hand a few years ago at a much higher price than I won it for. It sometimes pays to be patient.

 

Wow Beautiful! Great choice too!

 

67 with a green sticker. Nice.

 

This arrived today. A commemorative chug full of history.

 

My latest in the never ending upgrade of my Morgan collection:

 

WOW!

 

Shazam!

 

Just pick this one up this past week. Just couldn't pass it up for $5.00

 

Amazing deal!

 

AU 1932 S Washington and a 1940 Proof Mercury. A friend of mine's grandfather just passed away and he found the Mercury Proof in his collection. A VERY nice coin, save the gash on the back of Liberty's head. Definitely details. However the reverse I believe to be full split bands. He offered to sell it and I have not yet decided. Right now it's in my coin album. The rest of the coins his grandfather had were run-of the-mill halves and over 100 common date Morgans. The Mercury was the only proof in his collection. The Washington is mine.

 

I really got this thing for old copper, I can't explain it. You know what that "thing"
feels like.

 

Wow, that is quite the gash. But I love the coin!

 

And I bet they would really love it in the correct forum, I know I would

 

Not bad for a hole filler, but what would be a fair price to offer?

 

I would have to say maybe like $50.That might be a bit low but sold listings on Ebay are around $120-160 for proof Mercs (the common ones) and this one has that massive scratch. But I'm no expert. I got my first 40's proof just last week haha.

 

I was thinking it would be a fair price for that huge gash. I don't mind really. I'm sure it will be upgraded if I decide to buy it.
