    63 star on the toner Morgan, and jeez, I suck at pennies. 64-65 BN? Nifty off center;)

    And there is some kind of 'baggy' desination associated with the Morgan. The 'term' escapes me at the moment, but I want to say.......'Peat Moss Bag Effect'.........And I know that ain't no designation, but it's late and I've had a few........

    Are you thinking of "Textile" toning?
    If so, then yes it has it. :)

    I'll go with 64 on the dollar and 65 on the cent.

    I'm 63 on the Morgan due to the number of bag marks and scratches on the obverse. Also looks like a toned fingerprint on her cheek.

    And 64 brown on the off center Cent. Both are beautiful coins.

    Edited to correct spell check.

    I believe what you are seeing is the textile pattern (from the bag) as opposed to a fingerprint.

    Thanks for pointing that out. Spell check strikes again. It's bedtime.

    Dang spell check! :p
    We knew you didn't hate beautiful coins (but if you did, we'd still accept you, begrudgingly :D).

    MS 64 on the Morgan. 64 BN on the Cent (Judging by the photos it looks like it was struck off center on a large planchet). Or is it just the background?

    Nice pickups!! One thing I can say about your tastes is you could easily shop for me and I would more than likely love whatever you picked out. :)

    1885-O Morgan MS-63★ and of course NGC in order to get the ★ designation.

    1935 Lincoln Cent MS-64RB broad struck small white ANACS holder. (Personally I would grade it MS-65RB.)

    64 on the Morgan and unless so I have heard the Lincoln should go 64 maybe 65 cause that must be cabinet friction:shame:.
    Actually that is a Perty off center Lincoln. I would pay MS money for it.
