numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 11898 Posts	Posted 05/19/2017 8:57 pm Picked up a nice half roll of unc 1885-O morgans. Your opinion of grades would be greatly appreciated. Sorry that they are in messed up order. Here are the first 6. Not in hand yet so no better pictures. IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 05/19/2017 11:26 pm Most rolls were put together from bags. As a result, conditions can vary widely within a single date/MM roll from AU58 sliders to MS65 gems. Some of the very earliest rolls put together in the 40s and 50s developed some gorgeous toning on the end coins, usually easily recognizable by one side being blast white and the other being fully toned.
