Hi guys,
Yes, Pricey, but very Beautiful!
I thought about it but also thought how magnificent the mint pulled this off.
Com'on, I couldn't pass this up.
Check it out, guys.






OK, here it is guys.
Look at this Gem!


WOW!
Also, I thoroughly louped it.
NO ticks of any kind. I might send it in to our host?
<3 ❤ ❤

    Looks like a small piece of plastic and blowing it with compressed air may remove it.

    Doesn't the mint still have these avaliable for 80$? Or am I reading their website wrong?

    They are still available as of a moment ago. I passed on these as I do not collect Morgan nor Peace Dollars.

    A rinse in acetone may remove that spot.

    If you use e-z-est, make sure you rinse it well and pat it dry with a clean cotton undershirt.

    Man, that's a proof!!! That spot looks baked into the surface. I wouldn't let ANYTHING touch the surface of that coin!!

    This is probably the best course of action. Put it back in the capsule and enjoy it as it is. It's a beautiful coin.

    I wouldn't even breath on the newer minted proof surfaces. I tried acetone on cheap proof coin surfaces for trial and error and sometimes the acetone leaves a slightly cloudy surface behind and can not be removed so...............DON"T mess with it.

    I think you're right. I just don't think it will take much to damage or destroy that coin.

    Although now, when viewing the coin, your eyes will be drawn to that darn spot.

    Really a beautiful coin. I don’t really know anything about dipping, etc., but I would be hard pressed to let anything touch that surface!
    I would enjoy as is.👍

    People could see that blemish from your photos. You couldn't see it with your loupe? 🤔 ;)

    Oh, I thought they did a P, D, S and CC. Must be confused with a different Morgan re-issue. I don’t really keep up on modern coinage.

    Yeah, I was thinking the same thing? I was wondering🤔 Did I do that when I removed the capsule???
    I hope not!

    On second thought!
    My OP picture of the obverse taken. Was BEFORE I removed the capsule! So apparently, I did miss it when I was first using my Loupe.

    I agree with the others just leave it be, but nice photos showing the proof contrast. Love that black/white look, makes it almost 3-D! In the 80s-90s auctions catalogs, they were all black and white images in the catalog, but I remember always thinking how nice proof coins looked in those images based on that heavy black/white contrast. Nice pickup Joey!

    Can't tell at the moment if the marks are dust partials yet?


    On the obverse, next to the "L" in Liberty, might be a nick?

    Those dust particles could eventually result in spotting and should be carefully removed with compressed air. That's why you should leave modern proofs in their capsule.
