I recently purchased my very first MS65 Morgan dollar. It's an 1881-S, my favorite date/mm.

I picked up this MS63 as well, as I couldn't resist. It's been too long since I bought some 1881-Ss. The luster on this 63 is FAR superior to the 65. I mean, it has magnificent bowl luster! I'm mesmerized....

A comparison shot showing the difference in luster. The 63 appears to have a sharper strike as well.

And a short video clip showing that cartwheel luster.

That looks great! You should post that anytime anyone asks what cartwheel luster looks like.

That 1840-O is a sweetheart, nice and original circulated example -- a pleasant sight for sure.

Here's a couple of 1846 Large Cents and a 1942 Washington quarter.

For $51, I couldn't resist. I feel it's undergraded by a point.

Last year I had posted some additions to my Mehrig commemorative half dollar type book. I was struck by the design of the San Diego half and began looking for a pleasing graded MS58 example to crack out. Well, I got caught up in grade creep and ended up with this MS65 green bean.

I wont be cracking this slab.

I was able to grab a couple of Mercurys off Heritage Auctions. This was my first time getting coins from there. Got a couple of dates that are harder to find in higher grades.

Very nice Mercury dime pickups mavs2583!!

mavs2583 - you inspired me; not ten minutes after seeing your post yesterday evening, I popped over to Heritage and made my own very first bid there, and won!

With shipping this one will still be under greysheet. I think the obv is pretty much spot on for the grade, while I think the reverse is a tad undergraded. This is PCGS VF25
