Weezer1878 Valued Member United States 349 Posts	Posted 01/21/2013 09:31 am We picked this up from our local coin dealer a few months ago and he gave us a great price and paid less than the 190 listed. It is obviously cleaned (as "CLEANED" is written n the 2x2) and very shiny. I still wanted it since it is a key date and one that I was missing. Wish it wasn't cleaned! Report this Post to the Staff

denco7 Pillar of the Community United States 2543 Posts	Posted 01/21/2013 09:54 am The compromises we make. Cleaned = I can afford it Original = way out of my price range. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinsKelly Pillar of the Community United States 3453 Posts	Posted 01/21/2013 09:55 am I am also a ~~hoarder~~ collector who does not shy away from the a "problem" coin if I like the way it looks or really, REALLY want to fill a spot. Kudos to the dealer for his/her honesty - sounds like you are happy with it so enjoy you recent acquisition ! Report this Post to the Staff
Weezer1878 Valued Member United States 349 Posts	Posted 01/21/2013 10:16 am Ha, yes way out of my price range if it wasn't cleaned. Not even sure I would have seen one! I've had great experiences with this dealer and I've bought a lot of coins from him. This is one of my favorite coins in the collection, although my one Morgan CC is also a favorite.

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36905 Posts	Posted 01/21/2013 11:32 am Looks like a nice coin.I have no problem buying a cleaned coin if it has good eye appeal and the price is right. Report this Post to the Staff
supgog Pillar of the Community Israel 2420 Posts	Posted 01/21/2013 11:44 am I agree Indian. I have tens of cleaned coins in my collection that I find appealing since they are more affordable. As long as you pay a cleaned coin money, you're doing just fine. Btw, I really like this Morgan :) . Report this Post to the Staff
Weezer1878 Valued Member United States 349 Posts	Posted 01/21/2013 11:53 am Thanks guys. It was a good day. At the same visit I also picked up a few Peace dollars in older PCGS slabs and a MS66 Mercury dime in an old slab. This guy is one of the few coin dealers in the area so if I hadn't walked in that day, not sure I would have picked up all that I did. And at fantastic prices, too. Report this Post to the Staff
