<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paul M., post: 5287700, member: 73165&quot;]I&#039;d put that quarter in the 5 range, having been paying attention to clad toners for a little bit.&nbsp; I&#039;d probably go more like 5.5 than 5.8, though.&nbsp; If I can get a good enough shot of it, I have a 1965 quarter that would probably crack at least a 6.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I respect a man who admits when he messed up.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for the 2 coins we&#039;re looking at now, I&#039;m not sure I even want to guess on the Morgan.&nbsp; It did literally make me say &quot;whoa!&quot; when I saw it, and, given the chance and the right price, I would probably be willing to buy it.&nbsp; But, I&#039;m having a hard time making sense of the toning, given that it&#039;s just a few shades of blue that are very, very close to each other, with no real trace of elevation chromatics, or anything that makes me think this coin didn&#039;t get worked on.&nbsp; There&#039;s no trace of pull away, and very, very little in the way of elevation chromatics.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The reverse is easy, of course, and I&#039;d give that side a solid &quot;meh.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Overall, I just don&#039;t understand this Morgan.&nbsp; I would feel better if I did, so, maybe if someone can explain to me how a Morgan dollar would get this way legitimately, I&#039;d appreciate it.&nbsp; I&#039;ve seen other kinds of coins tone mono blue before, but not with that abrupt, straight line cutoff this has going on.</p><p><br /></p><p>The dime, though...
