I picked up a very nice Toned Morgan silver dollar at an antique shop yesterday, for $32 (just over spot). I think I'm in love.

My link to the larger image was removed by a mod it seems, I uploaded it to this site and re-posted the link.

The link was not removed, just embedded so that the image shows inline.

I also edited your previous post to add the uploaded image link and tags.

Nice looking coin, but it appears to me to have been cleaned and retoned, but it could just be the picture and flash.

- It seems to have a bit much luster given the wear. It's tough to find a Morgan in any condition for just $2 over spot though.

Here's my favorite I have - though I don't think the pic even does it justice (there's a bit more saturation through the gradiant than what came out in the photo).

For $32.00 you couldn't go wrong with the price of silver the way it is! Good purchase!

Nice pick for the price. Something was done to it.

Very nice examples, I think the toning is exceptional. I would love to own coins as beautiful, congratulations on a nice buy.

Nice coins mshev!

Are you guys saying it was done by hand and not natural? If so that's ok too, but how do you get that look?

Thanks for the replies! :)
