nater222-migration Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Thanks jom, I think without looking at this coin I will return it. Listed as georgeous black and white cameo. Which it's cleary not in "real pictures". I buy coins with eye appeal just like most normal people, and I think the magic trick fooled me! Fortunately I don't buy from sellers who wont allow returns. This coin isn't a pig, but if it was, it would be wearing lipstick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got my DMPL Morgan from him, and I'm very happy with it. http://www.certifieddollar.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david3142 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I have bought most of my DMPLs from Don. He is extremely knowledgeable and just all around great to deal with. Be prepared to pay well over sheet for nice cameo coins, either from him or at auction. 78-CCs often have nice contrast and are readily available in PL/DMPL. Heritage has a couple in their Long Beach auction: http://coins.ha.com/itm/morgan-dollars/1878-cc-1-ms63-prooflike-pcgs-pcgs-population-563-594-ngc-census-462-423-numismedia-wsl-price-for-problem-free-n/a/1217-7541.s?ic3=ViewItem-Auction-Open-PreviousLot-081514 http://coins.ha.com/itm/morgan-dollars/silver-and-related-dollars/1878-cc-1-lines-in-wing-vam-11-ms64-deep-mirror-prooflike-anacs/a/1217-3995.s By way of comparison, here's my DMPL 78-CC VAM-11.

physics-fan3.14 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 That's a beautiful coin, Jason! This thread makes me wish I could collect everything... Thanks. In hand, the luster pops a bit more. But if you think this is nice, you really should see the ones that ldhair and Hard Times got at the same show. They make mine want to go sit in the corner.

leeg Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Nothing special here. Filling a hole in my birth set. Waiting on ROBEC to sell me his 57 in 67RB. Seller's Image Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david3142 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Looks like an awful lot of red in that picture to me. Does Bob have a 57 in 67RB to match the 57-D or are you completing a date set? If he ever decides to sell that 57-D I will arm wrestle you for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leeg Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 (edited) Looks like an awful lot of red in that picture to me. Does Bob have a 57 in 67RB to match the 57-D or are you completing a date set? If he ever decides to sell that 57-D I will arm wrestle you for it! He does and you're on. It is the 57-D, no 57 that I'm aware of. Edited January 27, 2015 by leeg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greysoldier Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Thanks ~ It resides in an old NGC holder, cert# 185474, graded MS 64 which I think is a bit of an "understatement" ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpcienkus Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 Picked this up for my type set. I really enjoy the NGC "*" designated coins and I believe I'll be very happy with this in hand. A few minor contact marks, but none too distracting. The fields look remarkably clean and I believe there is some depth to them as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
