That's the thing about any thinly traded collectable. It only takes two potential bidders who are hot and heavy into a given item, it gets bid through the roof, now all of a sudden the realized price is what others who have a similar item feel theirs is worth. I am such a non-believer in this scenario and I feel this in no way dictates a market value. This is most evident with high grade vintage baseball cards which based on a few beyond crazy prices being paid, all of a sudden the asking prices all over the place are ridiculous. This can be said with coins as well, but I think there's enough consistent high spending on outrageously toned Morgans, that the premiums are substantiated to a certain degree. JMHO.
Common Date Morgan in an OGH Rattler with some killer toning and its bringing $450 at the moment.......And to think I just dropped $415 on an 1899 in MS64 Blast White.....
Just me??? Yea, that makes sense. I must be the only one who's buying nicely toned Morgans left and right. The only question I have is, if I'm the only one, where the heck are they all? 'Cause they're not in my piggy bank.

No, it's just the Morgan, not you, that is attractive.
The name is LEE!

My sentiments exactly Wolf- but watch out for all the good guys that love the colorful way it was done.

Darn right it's not a BC. If it were, it would sell for much more just for the pedigree alone. As everyone knows, but no one likes to admit it.
