[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 3818046, member: 15309"]I know this is just for fun and we shouldn’t take it too seriously but why are you expecting 20x price guide for this coin? The coin has nice obverse toning, pull away toning at the stars, and a touch of textile toning on the face. However, it also has a multitude of toning breaks and the color scheme is essentially limited to one progression with the yellow & magenta as the dominant colors. Coins that bring huge premiums usually have either multi banded rainbow progressions or get into the later color progressions with green playing a significant role. And you almost never see major toning breaks. I’m not saying the coin isn’t nice, it is, but the toning on this coin does nothing to separate itself from the thousands of other toned Morgan Dollars on the market that generate 4-5x price guide. Lastly, I could be wrong, but that photo looks like a Heritage “beauty shot” and my guess is that the slab shot is going to be much less impressive.[/QUOTE]
