    CP, those are all very nice Morgans. I think the '85-O is particularly striking - the colors of toning that catch my eye every time. Nice pictures.

    Damn, that 1887-S has the best color I've seen on a circ Morgan!

    Tightbudgets statement raises a question. Was that '87 toned (mint state) in the bag and subsequently pulled and circulated? I wonder how many nicely toned Morgans were pulled (in the 20s, 30s, or 40s) and circulated?

    Yeah, you occasionally see circ bust material that has retoned over the years, but not morgans. This one came from NEN's inventory.
