Im curious to how desirable they are since they seem to drive such high premiums.
Take this coin for example, while the colors are nice, theyre not extroardinary but the closing price is!
How desirable are textile toners and do they usually attract a higher premium?

Personally, I do not care for textile toning at all, I'd rather see smooth transitions from color to color. I would not pay a premium for one unless it was exceptional (which I have never seen).

Some of them are very beautiful, and command huge premiums. They're desirable, in part, because people associate them with burlap bag storage, which increases their NT credibility.
I love the color of it. I'm thinking the nice pastels are the reason for the high price.

I like them but that is one CRAZY price, IMHO.
MUCH higher than I'd ever go.

It speaks to the originality of the coin and adds a story to its history
Unbelievable..... just un-freaking-believable... IMO of course...

Is AB selling all or just a few of his Morgans? Anyone know? Color, textile, and grade all make up the perceived value of Morgan toners.

hmmmh I am unsure, he had an impressive collection back in the day. Any reason as to why he started unloading?
He has sold a handful of coins in the past few years but his collection is still extraordinary as he kept the best ones. Most of the Morgans he still has are MS66 and up. He has 5 or 6 in 68+ too.
It's all about eye appeal. In this case given it's common date and slightly above average grade I think it's properly priced. Can't see it going too much higher unless it has more "pop" in hand and the picture softens it.
