1898 morgan toned

I took this out of a type set today. It has had cardboard against the reverse for years. What do you think?I say kind of pretty, my wife says ugly, so is it pretty ugly or what.

    I'm neutral on it. But I'm not a fan of toned Morgans, usually.

    The reverse pic is difficult to make out, but I would say it looks more fugly than anything else........
    My style is impetuous, my defense is impregnable !
  • The color on the rev is more of a burnt orange with dark steel blue around the rim. Looks better in hand than the scan. fugly maybe but it kind of grows on ya.

  • I'm sure that the pictures don't do it justice--I've got quite a few(actually way too many)MS Morgans but I do love the EFs and AUs--particularly with toning.

    How many years ??


    I would believe it looks better in hand, so I'm gonna vote for "what"

    It's OK, but not great.
