This 1819/18 CBH is absolutely gorgeous in hand. I only wish my photography skills and setup were better. Grading VF35, and attributed as an O-101, the obverse glows with multiple electric shades of red, blue, yellow and green, surrounding the portrait like a halo. The reverse shows a crisp sapphire ring with golden rose centers. Aesthetically over the top, and technically a circulated Gem, with, perhaps, a light century old wipe. One of the prettiest Capped Bust Halves I've encountered. Much more appealing in hand, guaranteed to please and guaranteed to grade. $600
1901 O MORGAN, Beautiful two sided toner, grading MS62+, with some chatter on the cheek, and typical flat "O" mint strike at center. BUT, bathed in bright sapphire, seagreen, red and yellow, and really doing a Peakock (censored) strut on the reverse. Also shows doubling on the inside (left) of the "O", and on the lettering starting at "D" and up through the star, spread counterclockwise. I couldn't determine which VAM it might be, but interesting nonetheless. Great coin. $150
1879 S MORGAN MS66+ This glowing white Superb Gem looks like a modern day Mint special issue. The obverse is nearly flawless, with the reverse showing just a few tiny tics on either side between the wings and the wreath. If not for these, this exceptional dollar would already be on the way to PCGS for a 67 designation. SOLD
1885 P MORGAN MS65, just a tiny cut on the cheek ( just the short one, the long thin line is toning)away from 66. Beautiful. $125
