Morgan Monday: Wayne Miller's Own 1895-O PCGS MS67 Morgan Dollar

Yowza!

Not only a beautiful technical grade, but also a fantastic strike for a New Orleans coin.

I've had the privilege of doing business with Wayne a few times way back in the day. It's been a few years, for sure. He's a really nice guy with an unending supply of incredible Morgans.

@ Coinfrog...let me know when and where.....

I ran across an older website still up the other day, that has a lot of Jack Lee's Dollars. The Michael Casper Collection, Morgan dollar fans might like to check it out.

Nothing is all that recent (2008 and earlier), Michael is now working on selling his cannabis farm in NY, he is a former stamps, coins, antiques and meteorite dealer (not at the same time), restauranteer, and organic farmer and always one of the best and the top at each endeavor he took on. Jack Lee was his best friend, as you will see from the link I shared. Michael's Dollars were sold in several sales in the early 2000's through Bowers & Merena or Heritage, he had the #3 Registry set at the time.

EDIT: to add every silver dollar fan also needs to get a copy of Wayne Miller's "Morgan and Peace Dollar Textbook." If just for the amazing coin photos of the time, his collection of monster toned dollars is simply out of this world.

Jack and Wayne had a friendly rivalry ongoing for the best of the best dollars, Jack won out more often than not.
