Well, i live in Ohio, today at school we drove about and hour to Fremont, OH for a field trip to Rutherfield B Haye's house/museaum. It was very boring until we were nearlly at the end when i looked at one of the cases and there was a sealed 1878 morgan in a case. I read the discription and it turns out it was the 1st ever minted. It even had a little handwritten COA. It was given to him as a gift. Although it was the first, it wasn't really all that attractive, but cool nonetheless.

Neat. The VAM book claims it's been harshly cleaned/polished. True?
