[QUOTE="cpm9ball, post: 899635, member: 24633"]New here? Yes! New to collecting Morgans? No! I started collecting them in 1957. You fail to see the point. No one can tell from those photos if the coin is PL or has been harshly cleaned. If it has been cleaned, it's worth $15. So, the buyer has lost $15.
