I haven't started a thread in a while. We just had to spend $15,000.00 on a new boiler. Seeing some of the forums best Morgan's just might cheer me up a little!

Need to think outside the box. Next time get a small portable space heater and a long extension cord and spend the other $14,900 on coins....
If it wasn't for the wife I probably would have done just that.
Nice Morgan BTW

Adding a few to the mix.....
Your hobby is supposed to be your therapy, not the reason you need it.
I have had a little over a dozen Morgan Dollars slip through my collection, but I have managed to hang on to this one.

I don't have many Morgans, but this is my best one.

You want to see my little friend. How’s this Scarface.
Sorry to hear that, been there. Sounds like you upgraded to the high SEER models. Also to cheer you up, you will save on heating bills going forward. I replaced my new home contractor grade 80% efficiency system; A/C, condenser, furnace to the highest available Lenox models a few years ago. What a difference and quieter also. I used to get an annual notice from my gas and electric companies that rated my home in the worse category for similar homes in my neighborhood. Now I'm rated the best and see the savings every year.
I have a few Morgans…
I'm selling my favorite Morgans to buy other coins. By selling them, I finally acquired photos of them to show off here.

Sorry to hear of your large expenditure, those unexpected home repairs can be tough. I don't know if these are favorites, but I do like them.

Not the highest grade (or most expensive) but a beautiful coin!

Outstanding coins folks.
Here are two from my collection that exhibit different types of beauty IMHO...
I like toned Morgan’s a little bit…

Yet to catch the Morgan bug but you would only need about 454 of these to cover.

I dont have a favorite,but i am very fond of these GSA Morgans that aren't Carson City.Less than 5% of the GSA Hoard weren't CC

Plucked this Raw for $50 at a show in Boston around 2010 😏
Lots to choose from.
This isn't my all time fave but it's pretty cool.

I only have 3 now, 2 Battle Creek’s, which aren’t nearly as colorful as most you’ll see, and one PCGS reverse toner I bought in the early 80’s.

I reckon you should send it back to JA and ask for a gold bean. That's the nicest MS60 I've ever seen.
Big fan of DMPLs, even more so with color.
Wow, I have never seen an MS CAM designation on a Morgan!
"Wow, I have never seen an MS CAM designation on a Morgan!"
It's a clerical error, cam and dcam are designated for proofs only, thought it was sorta neat and different.
If the reverse was as deep as the obverse, no doubt full blown dmpl. I swear the obverse is as deep as a proof ASE.
