FILTHYHOARD Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Well I've kind of been in a buying slump lately but I managed to pick up this nice crusty 1902-o Morgan the other day.

FILTHYHOARD Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Thanks Schatzy. I'm hoping it will be another "better-in-hand" Teletrade auction coin. In most cases their photos usually look like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schatzy Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Thanks Schatzy. I'm hoping it will be another "better-in-hand" Teletrade auction coin. In most cases their photos usually look like Heritage auctions are the worst for toned coins.....teletrade does a lot better job but still not the best.

Do you know why? Yes it is in an NCS holder. VF Details. Scratched. I liked the look of the coin initially and looked as closely as pics would allow and couldn't see any scratches that concerned me. Then I did that again 3 more times before deciding that whatever NCS saw either didn't bother me or was hidden by the photos and it was time to pull the pin and bid. I'm very happy with the price I paid, and seeing the coin in-hand it looks exactly like those pics. I haven't put it under a UV light yet. When I do that, maybe I'll see something else. Maybe I won't do that -- you know how it is, once you know a problem is there your eyes get drawn to it? At least, not for a while. For now I'm going to just enjoy it. Thanks for the replies!

Elbesaar Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 (edited) jpoltz - very nice coin and quite attractive - I couldn't see any thing wrong with it to warrant an NCS holder,,, guess you must have to tilt the coin at different angles to see any scratch. If I were working on a 7070 Dansco Type album, I'd crack that baby out immediately. Its got tons of details and I'd be proud to own it. Great pick up - congratulations. I picked up a beautiful 1900 Phily quarter last week in a PCGS 64 holder; sorry to say the images are too large to post @ 196Kb. The coin has great toning and although that date wasn't on my short list to be upgraded, I just couldn't let this coin pass me by. It can be viewed [ still ] on the seller's web site: HolsonbakeNumismatics.com - if you'd like to view it. The owner, Glenn Holsonbake is a real Barber fan - and is wonderful to work with. As a matter of fact, Glenn has consigned his Barber Half collection to Bowers & Merena for their ANA sale the beginning of next month. { My old 1892-O Micro O in PCGS 55 will be in that sale.} There will be an array of some fantastic original toned halves in that auction and - yes - I have my eyes on one to upgrade a date in my set of Halves. Just tried adding the 1900-P Quarter - no dice. Sorry. Edited July 10, 2009 by Elbesaar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RareSov Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Gold ones are best priced for points it seems ! around 2000 each I got averaged out.. and they have gold ! 70's seem a good buy I've been really happy with every modern commem. That satisfies the need for a while nicely.. What of a moon landing commem ? must have !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
