My First MS66 Morgan--A Gorgeous Toners I Rarely Show

airplanenutairplanenut Posts: 21,910 ✭✭✭✭✭
I picked this coin up many years ago in an ANACS MS66 holder, and crossed it to NGC (plus the star) when I was thinking about selling. It eluded my camera for a long time, and thus it's one of the coins that I prize that I've very rarely shown off on the boards. Anyway, it was great color, super lustre, semi-prooflike surfaces, and if it weren't for the small hit behind the eye, it would be a 67. The cheek is impeccably clean. Enjoy.

    Not really... the way I look at it is that the hit (which is pretty small in real life, and not so in-your-face to be distracting) made the coin 1/2 to 1/4 the price. I like discounts like that for almost no dip in quality image
