    I don't know if it's AT but it sure does look nice and I am sure you could always get $80 back out of it. image mike

    Absolutely not. That's a very nice album toned coin and you stole it IMO. That should have sold in the $150 range IMO. Way to go.

    The real question now is, new (gold) or old (green) PCI holder?

  • Are prices starting to fall on toned Morgans? Oh no!

    Not to worry Wallstreetman. You can't say "I told you so" just yet. You can still find a nice toned coin or two for a deal if you are diligent and in the right place at the right time.

    I don't know what PCGS would call it but I call it album tone. Looks kinda pretty.
    Change that we can believe in is that change which is 90% silver.
  • I thought album tone, but it seamed kinda cheap figured I was missing something. Can't say I bought the holder because I don't know if its gold or green.

    The seller of this coin had a total of 5 close today. I Email him twice. The first time I asked him the serial number and color of the slab. He responded by asking why I wanted to know serial numbers. I told him the reason and he replied that one had a green slab and a 10 digit number. I then ask him a pointed question concerning one coin and received no reply. My feeling was he was being very evasive and I refused to bid.
    Apparently others felt the same and also passed. The best looking coins went cheap with no snips.

    Forgot, he also started that buy the coin not the slab biz. The whole thing left me with bad vibes so I passed.

  • Thats interesting Gat. His feedback is super not a neutral or neg since 1998. He might be eccentric but should be a safe bet to send money. I'm kinda glad he scared you away image
  • you know Gat,

    I have had some of the same experiences with sellers before. They would just avoid the question, or come off with an attitude. Needless to say, I didn't bid.

    looks legit
  • HORRIBLE SCREAMING AT! Send it to me and give you half your money back since I'm feeling generous!


    I like those subtle pastel coins better than some of the more expensive "painted" looking coins. Nice score. image

    Granted I am no expert by a long shot, but with reading other postings, and from the book pics I have seen, that looks AT to me. But then, what the heck do I know? C'mon, guys what gives you the clarity to say it's natural??? I need to learn here also. Agentjim, no offense, this is just my opinion. image

  • Its in a green PCI slab and its a knock out. I can't believe this coin is anything but original toning. And that Buffalo 5c also came today, the one I got on teletrade for $75 and I'm getting $50 back. I just wish I could show you guys, its in a NGC63 holder, its better. You'd have to see to believe. 2 for 2 today. image
