Looks nice, but also looks AT.

You suck.
No risk. No reward.
You took a risk and it paid off with two very nice coins.
Congrats.
What is your opinion of them?
The darker of the two, I'd grade MS66PL, and the lime green/orange toned, I'd grade MS67PL.
On the second, there is a single distraction (in front of the portrait) along with some tics between the second and third star (seen when the coin is slightly tilted). Otherwise clean cheek and fields. I'd swear this was a proof Morgan
if it wasn't for the "S" mintmark (and the rims, of course).
Better photography would show the deep mirrors and frost warranting the PL designation. I will attempt better photos.

Looks like you did very well.... Strange color on the green one... Has the look of one that has spent time in a coin cabinet.... Cheers, RickO
@braddick Any plans on certification? I would like to see the results.

You really suck. Congrats.
Perhaps. They were sent to me each in a plastic baseball card holder.
I've subsequently placed them in those "slabs" for safekeeping. I think I'll either
find two Capital plastics Morgan holders (like GSAGUY used to do) or send them in for grading.

Pretty coins. The green one is a nice AT but just my mediocre opinion
