    Where's @Zoins to add his QC Morgan to join the parade?

    beautiful coins @braddick

    I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.

    Four AT coins. Well, at least they're good for bullion stacking.

    The last two are my favorites. They straight graded and they are beautiful, so I don’t care how they got that way.

    the newest version of PCI is slabbing them and giving extra points for color

    I only looked up the Morgans and they aren't straight graded.

    Gander = Ike
    Goose = Miss Liberty

    The AT on the Ikes compare with the AT on the Morgans.
    Edited to add: The insert numbers let me know these were (most likely) submitted within the same batch of coins.

    They all came out of the same color mill.

    What coins are you writing about? The four coins in the OP, cert numbers 46845405, 46845408, 46845409 and 46845410 all came back from PCGS as AT (code 91-Questionable Color) and without grades.

    AT or not, I like the first one. It's interesting. The others I don't particularly care for.

    I collect world proof sets, coins featuring composers, mid-20th century U.S. proof coins, U.S. type coins, and whatever else I want.

    I didn’t realize that…One should never assume. Thanks for the clarification. 😉
