New Purchase: 1879-O PCGS MS-64 Morgan Dollar (Cameo Semi-PL) -- New Photos

Although I was unable to attend the FUN Show, I did have some fun this evening after winning this beautiful 1879-O PCGS MS-64 Morgan Dollar in Cameo Semi-PL .

In my opinion, this coin has very high eye appeal "pop" and from the photos appears to be either solid or high-end for the grade, with the price to the next grade jumping 6x. These are the original seller's photos. I'll post an update to this thread after receiving the coin.

How do you like her??

    I like it...
    Cheek looks real smooth.
    Always looking for attractive rim toned Morgan and Peace dollars in PCGS or (older) ANA/ANACS holders!

    Here are the new pictures that I took of my recently purchased 1879-O Morgan Dollar after receiving it, as promised, for comparison purposes with the original seller's photos.
