Congrats on the CC. I like the look of that coin at F-15 better than a lot of much higher graded ones.

Great coin Darth.....I like it.
The other CCs in the low/mid grade range shouldn't be all that difficult for you..........except for the 1885CC - finding one in a pleasing mid grade may prove to be the biggest challenge - seem to be about as scarce as hen's teeth. Plenty of uncirculated ones around, but those that got spent by the cowboys and miners..........

It is hard to believe this is your first CC dollar. It has been long overdue so congratulations for achieving this milestone! In Q. David Bowers' Red Book on Morgan dollars he states that the spitting eagle variety is actually more common than the non spitting eagle. However it is a very interesting sight to see an eagle spitting. |

Circulated Morgans like this one are very appealing...  No arguement from me on that point. Colligo ergo sum

It's good getting advice like this, especially when it comes from the master of Morgan sets.  Quote:In Q.

I find a few of them to be interesting, but I just don't have much interest in varieties. As you can see, I didn't even bother to look it up. Hehe. That's not to say that this won't change. It might be the avenue I move into after I complete my Morgan set. We'll see. Thanks for the info. |

Congrats!
I love circulated Morgans, especially CCs as I feel they have even better stories to tell... Brothels and six shooters and train robberies and aces up the sleeve... Stories that MS coins don't tell as well. Nicely done!
