[QUOTE="ddddd, post: 3510141, member: 22377"]If you all check out the link, it will show a video of the Morgan. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that it is an ex-Aurora Borealis coin (named "Black Leopard"). My opinion is that the Morgan is fairly graded at 64 (one can argue for a 63/63+, but I'd say the hits aren't as severe as what I see on toned 63s nowadays). I'd also add that I would value it the same if it was graded 63 or 64 (as a 65 it would go for more, but I don't see it deserving a 65). The Lincoln Cent is probably close to BN (as opposed to RB), but could easily be a 63/64 (I don't quite see what caused a 62; maybe something to do with it being an error?). Regardless of grade, I liked the overall look of both coins. :)[/QUOTE]
