My really, really low grade Registry set

Don't be drinking anything when you check out the pictures. image

Morgan Mintmark Type set, average grade 1.25
When in doubt, don't.

    That would be hard to find. I guess you made these coins. They aren't worth the slab fee are they?

    "They aren't worth the slab fee are they?"


    Far from it. These ultra-low grade coins are actually in pretty high demand by folks who are as warped as me. It is incredibly hard to get PCGS to grade a Morgan Poor-01, and I've sold what few extras I've ever had for $75-$100 each. One of these days I'll sell the set, and I'd guess the '93-CC will bring $300-$500.
    When in doubt, don't.

    Old friends days...................I fondly remember 3 of those beauties! image

    However, my 1792-1964 copper, silver, nickel (no gold) type set is 94% complete and the average grade is 1.01.......now that's a sight for sore eyes, so-to-speak. Once PCGS fixes the mechanical error on my Wreath Cent (can you imagine a Fair-2 200 year old Werath cent that's a Red-Brown?), my set should fall to .99,......yep, less than a Poor-1 grade and I'm still working to lower that average - perhaps .9 someday! image Its like the limbo, how low can you go?????????

    Dennis - Nice set. I love those coins. Your right though - a coupla those beauties are undergraded! I wonder how many Morgans can reasonably ride around in my pockets for the next few decades? Surely I can fit 5 of them in there!

    And I also remember them!

    In fact I made the 1886 years ago. (I recongize the mark in front of the portrait. I was a bit fearful PCGS might not holder it because of that but it has the most perfect, even wear of any Morgan).

    Nice set!

    I have two in there right now. One of them, and 1886 O, is about a G03 right now. It still has too much definition and will need a couple more years.image

    Nice sets gentelmen!
