Boeing coin show pick up. Nice Morgan for the collection!

I'm not a big spender when it comes to coin shows but I am always looking for some nice coins on the cheaper side. Found this 1879 S Morgan I had to have for $55. MS 64 with a PL obverse but not reverse. Thought it was interesting and would be a nice example to have in the collection. Had a good time at the coin show, I was also given a free Dansco Type album that I am going to try and fill, should be fun!

    A free dansco (7070?) album would have been worth going :)

    Glad you found something you liked!

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    Nothing like having fun at a coin show.

    Nice pick up on the Morgan AND the Dansco.
    I got these (copyright 1952) for free at a Boeing Show a while back and I've been plugging away. Plugged two holes yesterday.

    Nice pickup. I’m a big fan of one-sided PL/DMPL Morgans. I picked up a cool PL Morgan (66PL PCGS rattler 80-S) at the show. Maybe we’ll meet at the upcoming PNNA. Cheers!

    Nice Morgan and you'll have a great time putting the 7070 Type set together. I have two of them and they would be the very last thing I'd let go of in my collection.

    Nice! The 79-S can be very attractive!

    You will have a good time filling the Dansco.

    Great way to promote the hobby and maybe future sales w/the free album. :)
