<p>[QUOTE="Morgandude11, post: 1464900, member: 37839"]gbroke, I just have a gut on this coin. One that pretty, I'd have slabbed. I have a strong feeling that it would come back body bagged with a "91" code, and would be AU. Recently I went to a friend's show in Orlando, and he's a pretty big dealer. Won't mention names for obvious reasons--he's honest. There are two or three coin "painters" in the Orlando area that hawk pretty looking Morgans just like that for decent money ($500-2000), and want dealers to purchase and resell them. He refused several times, and I respect him tremendously. They paint on chemicals that create monster tone, and bake them. It won't fool a TPG, but if one keeps it raw--oh well, an expensive "shake and bake" coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Bet this baby goes for over $300. It is at $81 now.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
