<p>[QUOTE=&quot;WingedLiberty, post: 1172037, member: 26030&quot;]Thanks Oval!&nbsp; Actually the 1878 I have in hand ... and I LOVE it ... it&#039;s by far my favorite Morgan in my collection. </p><p><br /></p><p>The 1879 and 1880 will be here tomorrow I think, so I will let you know on those.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>You are right though, the 1878 is less blue around the edge in hand (but only slightly).&nbsp; The color in the seller&#039;s photo was so close to the coin in hand that I never re-photographed it.&nbsp;&nbsp; It&#039;s a <u>STUNNING</u> coin (to my eye at least!) and shows color in <u>any light</u> and at <u>any angle</u>.&nbsp; I think this is rare among toned coins as most seem to require a special viewing angle or lighting condition to show their color.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Even right now, in my somewhat dark office under soft 30W lamp light, I have the coin propped up next to my computer monitor, and the blue color around the edge is very striking and visible -- and the entire coin has a soft golden color.&nbsp; The reverse is so golden that it almost looks like a gold coin. This coin is eye-candy to me.&nbsp; I will never sell this one![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
