I picked this coin up in Pittsburgh as well.

I didn't include it in my other Threads as

its a special coin all by itself.

 

There are many, many other Morgans out there

that have wild and very vivid toning - and I am not

after the wildest [ or most expensively] toned Morgan;

but this coin just spoke to me.

 

It reminded me of many of the Barber Quarters and Halves

in my collection. Its much nicer in hand - that's all I can say.

Couldn't care less about the + or the sticker - because that's a really nice Morgan and that speaks for itself.

 

I will have to disagree with you on this Jason, and agree with some of it. There's a group of economy submissions at pcgs, and the results were just received of 43 nice colorful to monster toned washies quarters. With only 1 coin grading ms65+ out of the bunch, with amazing toning for the date and which should have gone 66+ really.

 

So it's a lot tougher than some believe to receive the + designation with pcgs. And yes I don't need a + or *star to tell me a nice eye appealing coin. ;)

But a 65+ is still only a really nice 65. If it was a 66, then I'd call it a 66. If its a 65, then I'll pay 65 prices. I don't care if its hard to get or not, by definition 20% of all coins should have a plus. The semantics of it are irrelevant.
