Two Morgans with "low grades" but really A colors, lines and textile, don't you think?

    Yes, I agree, the colors are attractive on these coins. By textile, did you mean texture? The 1883 looks like a roll ender to me rather than textile toning. Interesting nonetheless.

    I wouldn't call MS63 & MS64s exactly low grade. The 1883-O is an end roller but the 1881-S is hard to tell as I don't see the textile dots.

    If it is the same coin I think it is, the 81-S is completely covered in textile............. although it only shows from certain angles.

    Forget the grade. Eye appeal is eye appeal no matter how you cut it.

    I wouldnt call them low grade either, although I think @ MS64 Morgans tend to start showing their merit and begin the upward part of the grade scale

    Very pretty coins-- I like the textile "dot pattern" on the 1881 cheek, and the colors on the 83 are beautiful--image

    << <i>Not into colored coins. BTW, what is the fascination about these colored coins? Just >>



    Its because they are very pretty and the colors can be quite dazzling as you turn or rotate the coin in various types of light. Kinda like women; some have a lot more physical beauty than others have.

  • Aren't these the kind of coins you'd expect to see the star designation on? Were they slabbed before the advent of the star?
