Well, here is something a bit different, a modern 2021D Morgan Silver Dollar. Why this one? Because it's one of the rare graded at MS70 minted from Denver. Bought directly from the mint and graded by our host!!
I have only one Morgan in my collection, so I guess I’m not really considered a Morgan collector, just a coin collector. Anyway here is my one and only.

Cool Morgan.
What's the grade?
Fine 15 or VG 8?

Beautiful coin, I think I have the twin coin that came from the same mint bag as yours. Exceptional 1 sided cameo with the reverse having the raised hairlines. 2nd photo below taken in extremely low light. I usually view PL/DMPL's in the lowest light, almost dark, since I feel they should always reflect that mirror when they qualify. Mine came from a Mint bag 60 days ago.
Here is another one of my favorites. I will resubmit this coin at some point. I think it's got a shot at 64. 1879-O PL are tough to find nice in any grade let alone PL.

I want to keep this thread alive. Here is another favorite. I did try to sell it in a time of need for a different purchase but I still like very much.

Here is one of my 1921 PL's. While I believe it is only a MS63 the strike is incredible for a 1921-P. You can even see the nice hairline coming around her forehead. The cameo is not to shabby either.

This is the favorite Morgan in my collection...purchased at Macy's Herald Square coin counter in 1990...
They actually had 3 or 4 to choose from...$120-$150/each...I stupidly only bought one of them!
I vaguely remember the clerk asking if I planned to keep it in the GSA slab...as many collectors thought they were bulky and broke them out!!!

Here are two of my most recent purchases. Both are fairly common dates but very hard to find with excellent eye appeal.
An 1882-S with exceptional one sided cameo contrast

And and 1883-O again with one sided exceptional cameo DMPL

Not slabbed yet. My phone camera is not working right sorry about the blurry reverse.
I'll post when it comes back from PCGS.

@Morgan13 Did you change your name from 150K?
From ebay. Much darker in hand
Bottom one bought from forum member a few years ago
Nice thread; pretty coins all!
No way can I pick my "favorite." I really love the whole set (such that I have; not quite complete).
Hard to pick a fave, but I got these Coins-In-Motion for my rarest:

How did you do it? I want to too.
You might be able to do it yourself. If you look under profile you might be able to edit your name. Otherwise you can email PCGS. Might take a while.

I can’t pick a favorite but today I’ll go with this one- an 1881 68DCAM that is frosty and hammered like an 1898
I've always thought this was one of the prettier coins in my set...
Hard pressed to pick a favorite though this is a high contender. PCGS MS 65+ DMPL

Currently…. This one.
That's going to be my next big purchase!
I love that coin.

This is another favorite... someday I will take better photos.
I think it should have gotten a more yellow colored sticker.
