Proof Morgan Set complete, at last minute!!!!!!

Today I have entered the last coin, ( 1886 ) into my Proof Morgan Set. Talk about close ! Rare Coins Of New Hampshire has had the coin reserved for me , but felt certain it would upgrade. After two tries at a possible PR66CAM, they have sold the coin to me as PR65CAM, which gave me an average set rating of 67.07.

Rare Coins of New Hampshire has been the main source of my Proof Morgans, and I am extremely pleased with the quality of their coins.
They have also helped me 'screen' other Morgans that I purchased elsewhere. It is a great conveinence to live within driving distance of one of my top three coin dealers.

Also helping to build the set: David Hall Rare Coins, Legend, Pinnacle Rarities, and Albanese Coins. Thanks to all for making it a pleasurable experience.

There is a link below to the set.
Anybody have a 1902 Morgan in PR66 or higher, please e-mail me.

    Paul, I see Laura has an upgrade for the 1895 image

    Also see you past one of my local dealers on the all time list. Bet that is a beautiful set to see up close. Love those proof Morgans.

    Thanks, Dan & Bruce.

    Dbldie55, I was offered that coin last month by another dealer.
    This is the second 1895 PR68 DCAM. The first one was offered to me by a couple different dealers, last year.
    I am satisfied with my Pr 67 DCAM. image
    At $240,000, I will definitely pass. I could build another complete PR 66 Cameo Morgan Dollar set for that much money !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I hope Laura still has the coin at the ANA, because she says it is amazing, and I would love to just see it.

    Double congratulations, as you managed not only the current finest set, but also the all-time finest set, topping Wayne Miller's set in the process. That has to be satisfying.
    I brake for ear bars.

    Very impressive, congratulations! How about showing pictures of each coin so that we may all admire them too?

    Paul,

    What a tremdous set. Congratulations. Not everyone understands how much time, effort and $$$ go into creating such a set but, like all of us, it's a labor of love. Any chance you will display the set in Baltimore?

    Dbldie55, I am out of state with my laptop, and do not receive the PCGS newsletter at this E-mail address. I will be home tonight and will check it out, but my curiosity is peaked.

    Thanks everyone for the nice words !! I got sidetracked lately and my learning to take images with the coolpix 4500 had to be put off, but as soon as I get a few free moments to myself, I promise I will eventually get pictures posted.
