Should have posted this sooner, better late then never, but in honor of the mostly senior fatalities, the 11 killed at Tree of Life synagogue last week.

Who knows, they might have been coin aficionados (nerds) like you and I.

GTG 1885-O Morgan here, reverse is mostly white, WINNER(S) will be tossed into a hat and drawn by a non-biased, secret collector aged well below all of us, at a time to be determined most likely within the next few days.

    It was certainly a horrific event committed by a horrible individual.

    I will guess MS-64. It seems to have pretty decent luster and not too marked up.

    Such beautiful sincere comments here, ditto. Just a shame this even occurred in our good 'ole USA.

    Adding another scan so perhaps this one can also help in this GTG, I admit my photo skills are lacking.

    In the news this morning someone shooting up a bar in California. Wounding at least 11. Unknown if any casualties. Crazy! Seems like this is turning into a weekly event. :o

    I'm going take a long shot guess at 64+

    All of my prayers and condolences to friends and family of that tragedy in Pittsburgh at the Tree of Life and the one that happened here in California last night in Thousand Oaks, Ca. another 13 were killed! These two and all of the others are disgusting that they happened!

  • USMarine6USMarine6 Posts: 1,956 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I'll wager 63+. As stated above these kinds of things seem to be happening every week. I just don't see any end of it in the near future. Sad.

    BTW @Paradisefound Welcome back? I took a break for a few days and just sign back on 15 mins ago. And the first topic I saw was about you were gone and forever missed. :# Silly forum members with their cruel jokes. :D

    I was waiting for just ONE more correct guess as graded, alas it remained ONE only, wow!

    Had no use for a draw or a hat grab :#:o

    Tooky PM me your mailing address - don't know what made you say 65, but you nailed it big time!

    Thanks all for the kind comments - we should all be with only good news only!
