Hi all, Please help me with 1891 O Morgan. Is this textile toning? What do you think of the O? Can you tell me the VAM # and condition? Asking a lot, I know. Appreciate any help. Thank you

No, that would be fingerprint toning. Textile toning will only be found on uncirculated coins because the toning was derived from the specific storage conditions- canvas mint bags locked away in a Treasury vault for several decades. Tens of millions of Morgans went directly from the presses to vault storage and did not see the light of day again until the 1960s/70s.

Looks to be one of the Far date with High O variety.
If you are interested with VAM, you should start here:

Many thanks to all. I will work out the VAM, obviously I need the practice.

Take care

I don't like that much toning on a circulated coin; methinks it's cleaned and retoning, perhaps even artificially.

I can see the cleaning now that I've looked for it.
The toning is sporatic, some nice green between letters, so did not think it is AF.

You've probably heard this before...Dave, you are Super.

Thanks again
