<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Morgandude11, post: 4787403, member: 37839&quot;]If it were a 65, that coin would have gone for $5,000 plus in an auction of serious toned coin collectors. When one gets into the 1891-1896 ballpark, we are talking about good-better-best date Morgans.&nbsp; It was undoubtedly market graded to keep the price under the gem level.&nbsp; I also agree that toning and surface preservation criteria are very different for the 3 mints (not considering Denver, as all we have is the 1921 D).&nbsp; Philadelphia coins do not tone as vividly, for the most part, as the storage was much drier than New Orleans or San Francisco.&nbsp; Most of the vivid textile toned rainbow coins are “o” mint, as the storage was damp, humid, and haphazard.&nbsp; Philadelphia coins in general have better strikes, although not as strong as the 1879-1889 S mint Morgans.&nbsp; So, there are many variables.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
