Bonedigger Pillar of the Community United States 1267 Posts	Posted 06/03/2006 9:16 pm Team, I haven't checked in for a while and just wanted to share a picture of what the mail-lady delivered today. Check out this 1889 Morgan which has some beautiful color to it. It looks to be in the MS-62/63 range as with a 10X loupe I cannot see any wear, but that's not the gist of this post. I just wanted to show off a pretty Morgan :-) Lets see yours :thumb: Thanks For Looking Report this Post to the Staff

Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 06/04/2006 12:40 pm I dont have any pretty toned morgans just because I usually shy away from toned coins all together. I guess the old saying that "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" goes along with this subject also because toning just doesn't appeal to me for some reason. I have seen maybe 2 coins that was toned that I thought was beautiful (but being that both of them was MS-67's they would have been just as attractive in Blast White). I am not sure if it was the toning or just the coin in general that I liked but they had some purples and ambers that really made them pretty as far as toning goes. Most toning is just attrocious to me, and I think just hides the beauty of the coin underneath, I guess I like to look at the coins for the artwork (me being a disabled freelance artist and tattoo artist)and the toning seems to hinder the beautiful artwork underneath Edited by Bryan1315 06/04/2006 12:44 pm Report this Post to the Staff

I don't have many toned coins and the only other Morgan I've got which would qualify as toned is one MUCH less colored than the one you showed. Mine's a light golden color, but yours taks my Breath-Away!!! Report this Post to the Staff
