Here is a 1901 Morgan that I recently acquired. It's nothing special, maybe a VG coin with some rim dings. BUT, I just absolutely love the color of the coin. Judging from the back this appears to be some sort of toning?! Anyway, thought I would share.

I also like the look of Morgans like this - honest circulation. I have a couple of '21s that look just like this. Well done.
Rest in Peace

I too like the color of unmolested circulated Morgans. Thanks for sharing.

Here's an example with the crescent toning on both sides. Unfortunately, roughly 20 yrs ago, I was organizing my Morgans into plastic rolls but I ran out. Instead of buying more rolls at the time, I used regular mailing envelopes (high sulfur content) to store some. They laid on each other diagonally sort of like this {\\\\\\\}. I just wish I had realized my stupidity before the toning progressed to the final stage of black.
