Haven't been this excited about an ungraded purchase in a long time... Ebay 1882-CC GSA.

$220 after eBay Bucks. High res images here. The more I look at it, the more excited I get. I literally went "Holy sh.." when I opened the GSA box.

Very nice pick up @FadeToBlack
Wow! Send her in and let us know what she grades.
65* maybe 66. Nice one.
PL for sure by the looks of it, and I am thinking it's a 65 (possibly a + or *).
Great Find!
Looks nice, I am not trying to say anything bad about the coin, I like it. I am just curious, What is causing the frost in in the fields in front of Miss Liberty's face and Eagle. Is it the lighting or something else?
Very nice. How were the seller pics?
Collector, occasional seller
I would be excited about that too. How deep are the mirrors in hand? It is impossible to tell from the photo, but I wouldn't rule out DMPL/DPL.
Or a 66+ with the way the services have historically graded CC Morgans...
I'll go with MS65+ DMPL or PL it's going to be one of them, A very nice pick up.
Hoard the keys.
Very nice pick-up indeed.. The coin is very PL...I like it.
Great looking pickup. She is indeed a nice looking piece.
Congrats, Donato

To much chatter for a 66, but I would give it a solid NGC 65PL nice coin.
Great pick up for $220.00
Very nice pickup, congrats

What you are talking about is referred to as a "halo effect." It is very desirable and not seen that often. Wayne Miller mentions it it his book "Textbook of Morgan and Peace Dollars." I believe it has to do with the basining of the dies. Here is a picture that is a memory for me:
By the way, FTB, that is an awesome coin you have there. And what a great price! You hit the lottery there!
Wish there was a LOVE button!! That thing is spectacular. I would have done a little dance and said exactly the same thing you did.
Sweet, good luck, keep us posted !!!
I'll second that.
Wicked pickup!
What a bute
Congrats

Lovely coin - you did incredibly well!
Really nice acquisition... I would not be surprised at a 66 pl.... I know you will post it when you get it back....Looking forward to it....Really great price as well... Cheers, RickO
They have been tough on these as of late. I'll go 65PL, but have seen worse coins graded higher over there a year ago.
Nice snag!
+1
Excellent find!
My YouTube Channel
NGC is looser on those from what I've seen them grading GSAs.
Awesome coin.
wow, i like the looks of that. nice pick
Incredible.
Nice cherrypick!
Unless you are selling it I would not even get it graded - the NGC band mars the front of the holder and the PCGS "tomb" looks silly and makes the original box useless.
Hell Yeah FTB!!!!
Killer coin, nice job.
