Best NEWPS in a long time

Just picked up a few Morgan's today down in the pan handle. Got a couple of common dates for a good price. I am in a hotel so I don't have my setup to photograph them so you can see, but the better coins in the bunch were two 1899s that have very similar (would be exact, but you can tell they were struck on the same exact die pair, but one has more die cracking than the other, but just burly) and I am super excited to have been able to pick up two coins (and roughly MS63) that I can positively say we're from the same die pair, and I got them both for my collection.

Yes, tease is on. When I move into my apartment I will get photos for you all.

Super excited

    Ok I see how you could pull that from what I said. I bought the coins from a dealer at his shop. I am PCSing and am staying in a hotel while I find a place to live. I am not a hotel buyer lol.

    Cool.

    I know I was pleased to recently pick up a second Lincoln from the same reverse die.

    Pretty long odds to find a pair like that. Those wheaties almost gave me a cold chill. Neat-o!
    Let's try not to get upset.

    Both morgans look like solid MS63's to me.

    Thanks.

    Yea I saw them and immediately had to get them. $39 each. Raw. I'm in love with these two right now. Initially I didn't like Morgans, thought they were to bland. Now I can't get enough!
