<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 426271, member: 15309&quot;]Sometimes you find a coin that you just find irresistible.&nbsp; This coin is one of those coins for me.&nbsp; It is not the most extravagantly toned or a premium gem.&nbsp; It is a simple MS65 common date Morgan with basically monochromatic toning.&nbsp; The obverse is covered in mint green with lemon yellow highlights.&nbsp; I don&#039;t know why, buy I find the toning pattern absolutely captivating.&nbsp; The cheek is very clean and the strike is half decent for an &quot;O&quot; mint Morgan.&nbsp; I purchased this coin last December from Heritage for less than Numismedia Wholesale price.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Morgan%20Dollars/MorganDollar1884-ONGCMS65139037--7.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Morgan%20Dollars/MorganDollar1884-ONGCMS65139037--8.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Morgan%20Dollars/MorganDollar1884-ONGCMS65139037--9.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>This coin is in the bottom ten with regards to price paid of my rainbow morgans but is in my top ten favorite toned Morgans.&nbsp; I was also pleasantly surprised when I received the coin from Heritage because their washed out photo simply did not do the coin justice.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Morgan%20Dollars/MorganDollar1884-ONGCMS65139037--10.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I was wondering, does anyone else have a relatively inexpensive coin in their collection that they consider one of their favorite coins.&nbsp; I would love to hear stories of other great finds.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
