Picked this up yesterday. I traded two common 1884 O Morgan's for this coin. How did I do? Your thoughts. Thanks!!   |

Looks like a $100+ coin traded for about $50 worth of other coin. Unless they were graded...

No they were raw. But I am new to Lincoln Cent collecting. I have a ton of Morgan's. |

Silver - blueish in hand. It's clean.

Just may have been an even trade, but seller probably got the better deal. It is hard to get nicer steel cents in slabs, but a 67 should go about $40-45, think your plain Morgans would bring at least $26+ at auction.

We still want at least an estimated of the grades on the Morgans.
But my guess is that you did well.

I've got hundreds of Morgan's but didn't have a good example of this Lincoln. I figured I would not find much higher grade than MS-67

I built a PDS set of 1943 in 67, all NGC because they are tougher on them, and finding NICE ones in 67 is quite a challenge. I paid $105-127, for the three each.
I had to look at dozens of 67's to find true untouched fields and sharp elements.
Yours would qualify as one I'd buy.
You did GREAT. Congratulations.
