Post them up if you want. I'd like to see them. Sharing is the fun part.
This Morgan has deep dmpl obverse mirrors with a sweet cameo effect. The reverse has too many polish lines but maybe pl. I paid to much. It happens.

    Thanks!
    Here’s a closer look.
    Overgraded, but happy to receive the *, my first one out of a handful of nice toners I’ve sent to NGC over time.


    As for raw coins, these two were my last two purchases. The half cent has since gone to a forum friend for his Dansco 7070:

    These two were both raw eBay purchases made over the past year. Recently graded by our hosts. I’ve certainly purchased my share of dogs from eBay over the years but these two couldn’t have worked out any better.


    I take it that by “… these two couldn’t have worked out any better” you meant that they both graded MS70. Congratulations!

    I bought this one raw about a month ago...
    PCGS just graded it VF25 and I received it back last week.

    Nice, I am surprised that one hadn't been certified yet.

    Ha. They were “MS70” eBay experiences where the coin in the photos were honest, accurate, and a perfect representation of what I received in the mail.

    Other times I’ve purchased AU58 level pictures only to get a thrice dipped XF details dud……or something along those lines.

    In all seriousness, I’m very glad to hear that. And I think your 1830 Half Dime is gorgeous.

    I hadn't bought a thing (raw or otherwise) since about February and then a month ago things really started turning up. Nothing but the usual slew of walkers, SLQs and a few buffs thrown in.

    MS66 taste on an MS63 budget.

    Bought these four coins in June and July. Had them graded recently also.
