Why yes, I do own an untoned, non-PL Morgan... it's a CC, and a Doily, and Superb!

I own three white Morgans. One is an 1898-O with 12+" mirrors and thick frost. One is an 1880-S with thick frost, nearly PL fields, and I suppose a hint of peripheral toning (but it's mostly white). And then this coin. When I was walking the Bay State show a few years ago, the hook was the doily holder, and the fact that it was priced at sheet. Carson City was a nice touch. And of course, so was the lovely, creamy skin. So yes, it's white, but it definitely hasn't been dipped.

Is the whole point of this post to make me jealous?? You got a cool CC, for sheet, in a DOILY, and . . . ???
OK . . . I AM jealous. When you are ready to sell . . .I am ready to unburden you!

I think $200. But who cares, Drunner's not getting it

There's a creamy skin that gets removed when you dip a coin. This piece has all the freshness needed to say it's original.
Nothing wrong with an untoned, non-PL Morgan.
I own a few of them myself.

I'll admit (of course) to the original skin (bucks), the superb Doily holder (additional bucks), the airplanenut pedigree (of course huge additional bucks), and the Doily passion I have (megabucks).
Gee . . . just because I didn't drive one of those slow and lazy people movers you design is no reason to hold a Doily against me. Put HUD and a GAU-8 cannon in those 767s and I'll be willing to push one around.
OK . . . if you really will never sell, how about designing coach with 2" more legroom for me???

Uh Oh, I think that if Jeremy was to sell it now he could easily get 1.5x PCGS guide, maybe even 2x guide
And who says buy the coin instead of the holder
