Oh man. I thought I was guessing how much you paid for them.
Nice close!

Way cool! I was going to say $1450, but I've been way over on my last few guesses...

I'll have a coin up in a bit, just need to play around with the lighting for the best representation of the toning.

 

Okay folks. This is a run of the mill raw 1885-O Morgan. Toning is subtle, but hits nice in hand. Very difficult to photograph, and I did bump up the saturation slightly. Grade consensus on another forum is in the MS63 - 64 range, so let's call it MS63. Numimedia has this listed at $54.

What did I pay for it? Bought in a coin auction, but not ebay.

 

75

 

$40

 

I keep thinking youre gonna post your avatar coin

35 dollaz

 

I love that thing. $6 (the avatar, not the Morgan)!

 

$50

 

$37.88

 

$55 ...some colors, but not the popular ones...being raw likely scared off some people too, but I agree with the MS 63-64 range (let's put it at 63+).

Winner! Winner! Chicken dinner!

Total cost with buyer's premium was $28.40.

I don't do Morgans, but it was cheap, and I thought the toning was better then the photo, and I was right.

So @brg5658 , you're up!

Nice buy @Beefer518
And congrats @brg5658 you're next

 

Wow, surprised I won that one. I thought I was low-balling a bit.

OK, I'll post another non-USA coin. Krause book in MS63 is $9! As a bit of a hint, Krause prices are notoriously low compared to reality.

I purchased this from a dealer in France on eBay 1.5 years ago.

EDIT: It was already graded by PCGS when I purchased it.

PCGS, MS64+

 

I'll say $50.

It's a very pretty coin!

Edited because I didn't initially see the comment about Krause being notoriously low.

 

I like that coin and the colors help highlight the design.
I will guess $125.

 

$60.30.
