    Nice crisp image. Is it really that dark? NGC MS65?
    Just curious what are using for a camera and lens?

    Personally, it's a bit too dark for me.

    But if you like it then that's all that matters.

    MorgansForever: In reply to your above quoted post, here are some side-by-side comparison images for your viewing pleasure. The coin hue intensity appears somewhere in between both sets of photos, depending on lighting conditions.
    Since I did not take these images, I don't not know the specific camera and lens used.

    The obverse is so dark it looks like there could be environmental damage involved.

    It's not the color for me but if you like it, there's nothing wrong with it.

    Yeah, it is the right mint-mark.

    The more I look at it, the more I'm liking it. It has a copper tone look to it IMO.

    I think this set of images better depict the toning, with improved contrast and sharper imaging.

    CMCart and Others,

    Thanks for your kind words about my new 1878-CC Toned Morgan Dollar. In reply to CMCart's question, yes it is a Mint State Coin.
