I am blown away. Just the first half of this set is great. Can't wait to see the rest.

Fair warning: decently-toned 1921-D's carry a silly premium. Count yourself a winner if you can get one at grade price.

I'm back to collecting after a multi-year lapse. I enjoy this forum; have read it for some time.
I am collecting PCGS Morgans, MS64. I have to share my excitement in picking up an 1882-CC the other day. It's my first Carson City.
By the way, I find that PCGS does the best grading. Am I in the minority here?

Very nice matched set so far. The ability to accurately photograph a toned Morgan will be tougher to come by than completing this set. Best of luck on both and keep us posted!

The last couple I had seen I didn't ask the price and I wasn't looking to buy one then either so I don't know how much of a premium people think they can get. I won't pay stupid money just to have one and I am not in a hurry to fill that hole so eventually I'll find a dealer who isn't in love with his coin and get it at a fair price. Nicely toned CC's are not very common either and the $275.00 I paid for this one I felt was quite reasonable. Ed ANA LM-3175 |

Very nice, too bad I had an O mint coin 1900 that matched these other coins perfectly in toning and color, it was MS-64 NGC but I just dumped it in a trade, would have looked great in that holder. Still like the Capitol Plastics holders the best for big displays like this. I have a cool 1878 Morgan dollar holder somewhere. "Buy the Book Before You Buy the Coin" - Aaron R.

Gyrene7483: What grade is that CC Morgan?

blackjack, it's MS-64. That's usually the highest grade I'll buy unless the differential between an MS-64 and MS-65 is within reason. Ed ANA LM-3175 |

Funny that you say that Gyreme7483; I noticed the other day that the 65s don't always leap above the 64s where rub marks and chatter are concerned; not worth the extra money. And I've been told that the 64s trade well.
