Amen to that! I can't afford the moon money that some of the higher-end NGC and PCGS toned morgans seem to go for, so I'm content with the $25-50 cheapies that I can pick up locally. Sure, they don't have the technical grade or pedigree that a lot of pieces posted here do, but they're acquirable by the everyman collector...
Best part is that since I don't know a whole lot about grading morgans, even if I screw up (paying MS63 greysheet for an MS61 for example), it's not like I've blown a fortune. Worst case scenario is that I've maybe paid $35 for a $25 coin, but I still have something aesthetically appealing at the end of the day.

Love the second coin's reverse a lot.
