It's a righteous coin and a good price.

$900 is a lot of cash. But I feel I would buy that coin. Overall a nice looking VF coin. Small rim ding on the reverse. Maybe a misaligned die, little weak at "of America" on obverse and on reverse at arrows. The green spots do not seem bad, I would treat with Verdi care. This coin would make most of my other 1870's IHC's look bad, but it would look great filling the empty hole in my Dansco.

Nice coin Jim! It is a major upgrade from the one I have in my album!

I gotta say I had low expectations for this 1877 after hearing about the green spots, the price tag, and you only having 29 posts (so far. . . ).
Pleasantly surprised here for a change. Often these types of threads end up with a fake coin or a grossly over graded coin for the price.
Looks like you got yourself a good dealer to work with Jim. Treat him well and it is often reciprocated.

I think your making a great choice also-everything looks legit obverse and reverse no doubt and I think it's worth every bit of 900$ good luck keep us posted

I like silver, but it'd be centless not to go with the '77

At $900 I would be ALL IN! I bet this would get a problem free VF20-25. 100% authentic....really well priced. Go for it!

I just traded a roll of common date circulated Morgans for an 1877. So I might be slightly biased in favor of the 1877...

I would have gone for a scarcer type coin, like a draped bust half.

Chiming in late here, but would ask if all that apparent chatter in left obverse field is on the holder?

I know this is late, but I'll throw in my Two Cents.  If I had the choice, I'd definitely go for the IHC.
