Ever see an 1885-D Morgan?

I was looking for an 1885-S and saw this: link. Funny! image

    Littleton always the best stuff! image I wonder what the original owner paid for it.






    PS: If they bought from Littleton, I can see how they might get O and D mixed up.

    What is money, in reality, but dirty pieces of paper and metal upon which privilege is stamped?

    And you don't want to be the first on your block to own that elusive 1885-D?

    I actually own and 1885-C dollar.

    True.

    What happened gsaguy, did you have one of the "C"s rubbed off from a "CC"? I know...you're talking about the "C" mintmark on a gold coin!

    Nope, it's a Morgan.

    The die was clogged and one of the C's doesn't show. Cool coin.

    I've never seen an 1885-D Morgan, but apparently an 1892-D Barber quarter is not hard to find... image

    Collector since 1976. On the CU forums here since 2001.

    The owner is willing to sell this coin at considerably less than the value that they paid for it.
