Amazing toning, PCGS has been so strict, I'm a little surprised it made it into one of their new holders. Guess it could have been a regrade/reholder, but the coin is nice.

coindeuce · January 9, 2007 12:09PM

What a crying shame about the full thumb print in front of Liberty's portrait though

A mishandled coin is a mishandled coin, color or not.

lasvegasteddy · January 9, 2007 12:55PM

i concur as that is one breath taking beauty.it sure would be very hard to part with.

Coxe · January 9, 2007 1:09PM

A shame it wasn't the obverse instead of the reverse. Maybe it would have hidden the thumbprint.

PrivateCoinCollector · January 9, 2007 1:11PM

This should not have made it past PCGS. It has to be AT.

Can anybody here who works at a CSI-(city-of-your-choice) and can ID that fingerprint, call the local constable and aprehend the perpretrader with the fat thumb and take him jail. What a crying shame! Strangely enough, I just bought an 1882-S rainbow Morgan 2 days ago. The difference is the front is rainbowed.

"A"mazing "T"oning indeed. bleh.

Can you take a minute to explain this comment PrivateCoinCollector?

PCGS graders were drinking kool aid? If this isn't AT I don't know what is!

stman · January 9, 2007 1:41PM

DUDE!!!

Interesting toning/color. Now that's some "color." I'd like to see some pull-away and the color not all over the tops of the letters etc. and would like to see different shades of color inside the devices. Perhaps it blend a bit better, and could do without that spotty color stuff as well. I wish I could un-see the prints on the obverse. AND, it's not Battle Creek so it can't be much.

Bottom line.... "If it's pretty and you like it is all that matters." I learned that right here.

BECOKA · January 9, 2007 1:44PM

As we found out on this forum ( I won't mention names) some people have master the art of toning coins after they have been holdered.

Well spoken Steve... especially the comment about it "not being a Battle Creek so it can't be much".

In my opinion this is classic bag toning. They don't come more original IMHO

BAJJERFAN · January 9, 2007 2:06PM

I bet it don't look THAT razzle dazzle in hand.

MrD · January 9, 2007 2:10PM

Pretty close

uofa1285 · January 9, 2007 2:17PM

If I had the dough, I would try to own it...looks 100% NT to me. I have owned literally hundreds and hundreds of NT Rainbow Morgans over the years and this one is tremendous.

Nice coin

Myqqy · January 9, 2007 3:09PM

That's truly ironic that a reverse that intense would get paired with an ugly obverse with that kind of print on it...

gyocomgd · January 9, 2007 3:12PM

Don't take it to Willie Wonka's factory. It'll get eaten.

bestclser1 · January 9, 2007 4:56PM

<< If it looks to nice to be true then.............................................................. >>

You probably have never seen a real NT Moose color Morgan in hand.Bear,not directed at you as i know you have owned some beautiful coins.The problem with people who are always planting doubt about monster toned Morgans,and i dont collect reverse toned ones,so i have no interest in this coin,is that they have never seen one ,owned one,or are just plain jealous.Hey,what do i know,or Sunnywood,or GSA Guy,or Shep,Tom B,Curtis,Toneddollars,gemtone,coingame 2000,newmismitist,Art r.Mugno,Dragon,Kimmel,Fountainheadgold,Hadleydog,or any folks i forgot to mention who actually know real bag toning.JMHO

Hadleydog · January 9, 2007 7:11PM

A moose of a toner, and very much NT. Sorry stman, your wrong on this one. I have coins that show both pull-away on some portions while others have the devices covered. At least your response had some thought put into it.

dtkk49a · January 9, 2007 8:27PM

I would love to own that NT coin.

TONEDDOLLARS · January 9, 2007 8:46PM

The coin is not mine. I have seen it in hand, and its beautiful. Natural bag toning IMO.

Preussen · January 9, 2007 9:30PM

kryptonitecomics · January 9, 2007 10:51PM

NT....those that would say otherwise need to move on to posts about widgets.......or better yet.........Moderns.....plenty of other stuff to bash

ricko · January 9, 2007 10:54PM

Why is the Reverse shown on the label side of the slab? All I have seen have the obverse to the front. Cheers, RickO

bestclser1 · January 9, 2007 10:59PM

You can request the grading services to slab reverse,or money side out,Ricko.

pbfloyd · January 9, 2007 11:38PM

I think they are a sight to behold, but I could never buy one. My skill level at determining AT versus NT keeps me from it.

Who owns it now? Is it one of Larry's?

segoja · January 10, 2007 12:22AM

For Sure a good coin.

Imagine what this coin would be worth with this color on the obverse?

TheKidCollector1991 · January 10, 2007 12:26AM

Howely!
Awesome Toning!

TKC!

Higashiyama · January 10, 2007 1:44AM

I actually like the obverse on this coin; it is clearly original, the fingerprint is old; the coin has character!

relicsncoins · January 10, 2007 2:17AM

Who knows who's thumb print that might be???

I bought this as a retirement gift for my older brother, who retired, kinda, at 52.

kiyote · January 10, 2007 9:52AM

I don't think I have a chance.. this thing could go over $1,000!

Hadleydog · January 10, 2007 10:05AM

<< ..... this thing could go over $1,000! >>

Easily, although you never know on the 'bay. Color like this is rare.......imagine if it were on the obverse?

The most Amazing Reverse Toned Morgan (PCGS) I have ever seen (not my coin)...
