Another Toned Morgan I just recently had graded. 1886. Enjoy.

This one has a slightly more red hue than shows in the Trueview.
Again, probably not worth sending in this low value coin but I like it and wanted a good pic of it too.

I recently posted a 1900 Morgan with a similar look and @tradedollarnut said the toning was "muddy". I thought that was a great description.
The same may be said for this one as well.

Many will find this toning undesirable but hand it to some people and they really like it.

    I like it and will guess 63 or details for QT.

    I like it also, tough to grade from the pic provided, looks like 64 would be the max on it.

    I'm thinking AU 58 because the hair and wing tips look a bit rubbed. It could just be the picture. If that's the case MS 64 is quite possible.

    If you do what you always did, you get what you always got.

    64+ I like the "no cheating" caption where the cert should be

    I decided to skip the GTG part.

    Being red, I'd call this one... Clay-ey ?

    Nothing like a red coin with an evil cert# ;)

    Looks AT to me..... Could go 63/64 if straight graded....Cheers, RickO

    Your last line is what makes collecting interesting. ricko doesn't like any sort of 'tarnish', some of us collect only 'toned' coins, for me, I get what I think has eye appeal, but most importantly, what is affordable.
