First Morgan purchase of the year for me

Common, maybe boring to most, but I though it looked interesting. The luster is strong and unimpeded by the toning.

The 1898-O dollar was a scarce coin circa 1960. Then the government released a large number of them from their inventory. It was not as dramatic as the 1903-O, but those who had bought them before the release still lost money.

'Tis white no more! Yeah a common date, but these can be very attractive and reasonably priced.

My 98-O looks almost exactly like that. Former PCI 63PQ 90% white (ca. 1990), now PCGS 65.

I could see this coin in a 65 holder. Although I do like the old PCI and how it is at least a full point undergraded.
Do these ever stop toning or does it just keep going until removed from the pci holder? I think it is near a point where any more would become negative.

It might stop toning, but I think all the white bits will be gone before then and you'll just end up with a solid burnt orange coin. Fine if you're a Texas Longhorns fan, I guess, but otherwise I agree that it would become negative.
