i would like opinions on the value and desirability of this Golden toned Morgan
The toning is slightly darker than the picture
The lines on the face are scratches on the plastic not the coin
Thanks in advance

It doesn’t have the kind of toning that would lead me to believe it’d warrant a premium, especially with the fat fingerprint between 7 and 8 o’clock. If anything, the old green holder might give it a slight bump.
Nothing is as expensive as free money.
Not an attractive type of tarnish, so I doubt much of a premium there.... Cheers, RickO
discounted in my opinion vs white
More likely to get discounted than a premium in my view, the old holder may help it sell quicker but even that may not be able to overcome that look.

Never a slave to one plastic brand will I ever be.
What's the VAM? Toning doesn't cut it for me but a O/CC would be a game changer.

Poor eye appeal. A coin that should discounted as others have said.
Toners are a special animal. It takes someone who loves toners pay up, etc. in pricing them it takes some work / research.
I would take a look at dealer websites or dealer eBay store who has lots of toners. and (1) compare his toners vs non toner MV. (2) jot down premium factor, description. Analyze premium factors vs his description. It takes doing some home work. One dealer on eBay I basically dissected his inventory doing this making my own pricing table. What is the premium range for a particular description.
Your 1900-O dollar has some possibilities. I would tack on 50-75 pct more (toner bump up) on price and have bin /mo. Or frankly suggest yo do your own research. It boils down on how badly the buyer wants the coin. This conservative IMV to many analyzed. But you still have to find the buyer who gonna pay the money.
Your coin I really need to c in 100 watt lite. One descr: Original, Lustrous, PQ example of this issue, with its exquisite gold toning a really super deal! However the scratched holder a deal breaker for many. Get it reholdered. Does it have exquisite gold toning on your view? In another thread a guy supposedly paid $700 extra bc of custom slab label on $100 platinum PCGS coin.
Love toners, but no premium for this toning in my opinion.

Not desirable toning-wise, and it is a common date.
This is my one toner that I will sell when a major toner auction comes up...one day. I love looking at it as often as I can.
Thanks for all the responses this is why I love this forum

The toning is ok but i dont like the strike at all
The slab can be improved with Maguire's scratch-x. Old holders do carry a lot of interest. $85 or so imo.
