My first Morgan!!
Building my 1891 type set in MS63/PF63
May I ask, What is the significance of the year 1891?
Nothing of significance to me personally, I just recently picked up the 1891 seated liberty quarter and decided to build that year of types. Honestly though this board really got me hooked on coins. I very much enjoy looking at all the coins from all the forum members and wanted to start a collection of my own to pass down to my daughter. I enjoy the "hunt" to find the right coin for my collection....1891 was just a starting point.....
1853, is the same for me. Not a significant date but I got a great deal on the $10 gold so I was off to the races with that date. Since, I've added 1/2 dime, dime, $1, and just won my Stacks auction yesterday with a very nice $2.5 Quarter Eagle. Love those mid-century modern coins. Lol.

It probably would but I'm sure that my wife, 3 kids, and 6 grandkids would pick my collection apart first.
Nice and handsome BB-160 example. The relapped reverse is so distinct in the weak left and right extreme stars, but most evident in the loss of the berries on the branch. You picked an interesting one.
Been wanting to pick up one of these ever since I saw it flipping through the redbook when I first started getting into the hobby when I was 8. My first CAC approved coin also.

1799 BB-151. Holed. I already have one of these in PCGS VF25. This looks like maybe VF35 Details.
Edit: Mistakes were make and I don't know how to delete this XD
Purchased a few months ago. Not a high grade but the detail is nice and bold for a 30.

Not in hand yet. Bought this for my seated liberty set.
Just picked some home heating fuel @ $4.50 a gallon, can't imagine where it will be come January.
Ok she's "details" but I've wanted a Twenty center for a long time and the price was very right

Another Circa 1853 added to my mid-century group in AU-58.
Yes! very much so... I can see why you liked it! Original surfaces on a solid VF coin! It will fit well in the Type Set...
edited to add: I may upgrade at some point... and I'll let you know when I do. Best, Leo

Good to hear. It's a lovely example. Not too upset about it selling for a bit under expectations knowing it's going to a great home.

I've been working on a date set of Morgans in mint state. Most dates aren't difficult, but this is one of the tougher ones, even in MS63.
