<p>[QUOTE=&quot;The Meat man, post: 26696756, member: 135271&quot;]Morgan dollars are among the most collected of US coins. They&#039;re big, beautiful, and readily available in pristine, mint-state condition.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve been hunting intensively for a satisfactory specimen to add to my collection. This has been more difficult than I thought! I&#039;m looking for a mint state example, preferably MS63 and up, with minimum &quot;bag marks&quot;, and tastefully rim toned, not a blast-white specimen (though I like those, too.) I&#039;ve gone through thousands and thousands of specimens online but so far haven&#039;t found exactly what I want. Oh, and my budget is under $500, which makes it a little bit more challenging.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m looking primarily to slabbed specimens since I don&#039;t want to end up with artificial toning or a fake. NGC or PCGS preferred.</p><p><br /></p><p>What do you like in a Morgan dollar? Do you go for rare dates, super luster/PL surfaces, prioritize toning, prefer pure untoned surfaces, or gem grades? Or all of the above? <b>I would love to see your own collection favorites, as I continue to hunt for one myself. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></b></p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ll start things off by posting one that got away. I let this one linger a little too long in my eBay shopping cart, and by the time I got serious about it it was gone. I hope whomever bought it is happy with it!</p><p><br /></p><p><b><font size="5">NOT MY COIN</font></b></p><p><font size="3">(but a good example of what I&#039;m looking for.)</font></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1703614[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
