I was even wondering if they could be fake, given their good condition, although these were collected a long time ago - maybe when fakes weren't quite as prevalent? The first is an 1884-O that is very bright - too bright. At the very least, it seems like it must have been cleaned at some point? The second Morgan is a beautifully toned 1886-S - sorry, my close ups are out of focus on the bottom of each image (any wear is symmetric): I'm looking forward to your evaluations! Cheers, Dave Report this Post to the Staff

As for the 86-S, it looks like it is toning over an old cleaning.(not 100% sure) As for them being real, I am not an expert, but the mint marks both look very odd, not sure if this is a rpm for this date or not.
