Nice find,although it's worn the fields look clear of any distracting marks.

Nice coin. I remember my first CC it was similar to yours. Even though I upgraded it I still have it. It has character. I like knowing that they have traveled in circulation. I like to image who could have handle the coin in the past.

Nice coin with what appears to be original, untampered surfaces. CC's are the "Old West" and this one, being an 1878, could tell some nice stories if she could talk!

I got it for 80 at a show in Vegas-- I would wonder what this coin could tell me-- and where it has been, maybe it was hanging out with these guys at the "Oriental"

Congrats, I love the old dark Morgan Carson City's. Looking at the coin $80.00 was a good pick up for you.

Very nice coin. I was thinking about getting a cc dime myself but maybe a Morgan would be nice as well.
