1881-CC Toned Morgan

Simply beautiful! There's no coins I like more than toned Morgan's..
The reverse is basically flawless, one mark below "America".. The obverse looks pretty good as well... Not quite as nice.. But a beauty none the less..
MS-64

Do I see a large die crack on the reverse?

MS65

ms63+-64. You bought a raw coin like that.......you got guts......chinese are faking so many of these rarities

The reverse of this attractive toner is a solid gem. The obverse is choice. MS64 sounds correct for the overall grade.

VAM-2. The hefty survival rate of this issue belies its' low mintage; it's not intuitive that a coin with only 296,000 minted would be worth a little over $500 in MS64. But there it is.

Eye appeal is utterly off the charts. This one grabs me by the throat, and I'd be reduced to giggles were I able to add it to my collection. The cheek doesn't quite allow me to go 65 on it, but if PCGS were to call it that I wouldn't be handing out pitchforks.

MS64+ for extraordinary eye appeal. If this one goes in your cases, you need to get top-of-the-market money for it.

@ Dave and Dave;

I agree its a VAM-2. The Reverse is spot on, all the way to the die crack.

For all, a non-toned example can be seen here;

@ mkman123 - I don't buy on ebay. I buy from legitimate sources that I have been dealing with for over 2 decades, or take a chance at organizations and agencies that are willing to work with me on prices.

I am a huge fan of Morgan dollars. One day I was sorting through the safe and my daughter and her fiance come in and my daughter asked "So, Dad, is there anything you buy that you don't sell ? " I gave her one of those "of course" looks, and handed her a NGC box of 64 and 65 PL Morgans, and another of Toned 64, 65 and 66 beauties. She said WOW, where'd you get these, and I said through many places and many years. And there are more of these than I am willing to pull out. She says, well, that answers my question !

This one I will eventually send in and get graded and attributed. I am an even bigger fan of the Carson City Morgans, and while I can I am diving all in to buy one of each at the highest level my wallet can afford. I do sell the lower graded coins and move up slowly in the Morgan dollar market and it is paying off. I'm a collector, investor and businessman all wrapped into one. A Toned Morgan dollar is hard to beat, and thats why I collect them.
