<p>[QUOTE="Morgandude11, post: 4736337, member: 37839"]The point that Paul and I were making is that Jeffersons are not capable of producing the same color patterns as Morgan Dollars can, as the metallic content is very different. I understand that there is an implied “absolute” scale, with the OP’s standards for toning on Morgans. However, I think some flexibility, and interpolation is required. That Jefferson is a maximum toned coin, in extremely desirable coloration. Using a relative evaluation, and comparing it to the Morgans requires judgement. I would agree with my other two collectors that from an absolute standard for that coin series, the Jefferson is a 6 Godzilla monster, by any collection standard. Penalizing it for not being Silver is silly, IMHO.</p><p><br /></p><p>When it is my turn next, I will post a Franklin that is a similar situation—not toned in the same ways that Morgans necessarily tone, but maximum, in my opinion.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
