the green gasket on the 98-O is considered to be from sunlight exposure. I like that coin a lot.
as an added extra to think about, there are counterfeit holders out there, too. we've even seen a counterfeit holder with a counterfeit CAC sticker (very convincing CAC sticker... luckily CAC tracks cert numbers on their site).
if you ever have doubts you can ask.

Little advice that may not apply to you. Sometime when we first start off we buy and buy and buy and we learn so much though that process taking some lumps alone the way which is a good thing as learning is most of the fun of the hobby.
The funny part is you can learn more by buying slower and less, while looking more.

Putting together some nice Morgan's there! 1898 is my favorite date!
Nice ones! I’ve got a short stack of Morgan’s coming later this week, too!

I got a real good price on them, so I figured that one of them would
be a good trader to deal with for something I don't have .....

That ‘98 O looks sharp!
@USMC .... Very nice Morgans.... I like the CC Morgans and built a set years ago. That '98O is a beauty too. Semper Fi.... Cheers, RickO
Nice group!
Im assuming @ThreeCentSilverFL and @ricko are referring to the NGC 98O Morgan. He has two. All nice pickups he made

i like the 1898 o myself as well
The kind of coins that pay my tuition. Intuition tells me you're in the sweet spot of the best ballpark we can play in. Such a great hobby.
Super nice looking coins. I really like the 1898-O.
