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."

I'm good, thanks! Just don't understand the appeal of mid-grade common slabbed Morgans, mostly everyday junk, to someone with a world-class collection of American rarities. At worst I'd think you'd be parsing 64/65 coins. But thanks for asking, I'm doing well.
Yourself?

I'm good too. I also can't understand why someone comes to a coin grading forum to complain about what someone else wants to buy for their coin collection. I don't consider unc morgans junk and I like them so I buy them. Seems strange that it bothers you that someone else does what he wants to do. One of the great things about this country is that I am free to buy things I like with my own money and I suppose that you have the freedom to follow me around complaining about it. Nothing better to do?

For the record, if my coin budget was more substantial, I'd be buying stacks of MS Morgan dollars as well. We like what we like. I've been enjoying seeing all your Morgans and hope to see many more. I surmise that you are buying rolls?
