Message:: [QUOTE="WingedLiberty, post: 1171955, member: 26030"]Thanks for checking in seasnake.  NY to Fla sounds like a fun trip (but Rt 95 can be so boring).  I made that trip many times. I have 3 low end toners that I bought in the past couple of weeks.  These are not wildly colored or impressive, but I really liked them.   It's interesting but these cover the first three years of the Morgan series -- which gave me the idea to see if I could put together a Morgan "Date Set" of toners, with every year covered.  I think that would be a cool endeavor. No idea if that is possible or not, as someone already mentioned that toners from some years are really rare. (And anyway I doubt I can afford anything from the year 1895!) If anyone wants to guess at the purchase price of these 3 that would be fun.    Or if you just want to gawk, that's fine too.   Just a note that all three of these were bought in a regular auction.  As a baseline for guessing, the NGC Numismedia price guide lists the recent average sales price on the 1878 at $175; and the 1879-S & 1880-S are listed at $102 (for regular untoned coins in those NGC grades: MS63, MS64, & MS64).
