My third Morgan, just sharing. Thoughts on ranking are appreciated. Don't think I got EF-40 from Littleton but can't be sure.

This is one of the coins that gives me a bit of a pause on missing Morgan purchases. I have more or less decided to concentrate on New Orleans minted Morgans since 4 of the 8 in my collection are New Orleans mints.

So if I'm initially just collecting by date, the '86 can suffice for now and be replaced with an O mint later. The next 'missing' Morgan would, therefore, be an 1887-O.

Photos are a better representation of the actual coin. Taken using natural light in my sunroom. (F3.5, 1/200 sec., ISO 200)

I've known a couple of people who put together a New Orleans Morgan set. I think the O-mints are the most interesting of the series. There are a few that are pricey, even in circulated grades, but a good set to pursue. If you can find them with full strikes, they are the ones to acquire. Your '86 is nice.

Edit: I would say this is better than a 40.

The New Orleans mint is pretty cool.
