	1878 8 Tail Feathers	MS65	PCGS 28781322		Gem	$1385	8 Tail Feathers, VAM-21, Flashy Cartwheel Luster, Rose Gold and Peripheral Blue Toning, Spectacular Eye Appeal, Osprey Collection . VAM-21. A gem dual sided toned Morgan dollar and better 8 Tail Feather variety for initial year of production. Accurately graded at the MS65 level with flashy cartwheel luster. Both obverse and reverse are covered with a transparent rose/gold patina along with a sky blue arc at the lower rim. This piece provides an alternative collecting option rather than the common blast white examples on the market. The MS65 grade level is the last "collector" grade for many since guide prices jump from $1450 to $6750 at the MS66 grade level. GFRC asking price is below the PCGS MS65 price guide for a lovely toner example. Housed in 2014 generation PCGS holder. Another top quality offering from the Osprey Collection.
	1878 7TF	MS62	PCGS 80673870		Original	$215	7 Tail Feather, Reverse of 1879, Original Frosty Luster, Conservative Grading, Saco River Collection. Frosty cartwheel luster is the highlight of this pretty 1878 7TF Morgan. For the assigned MS62 grade, I would expect to see more abraided surfaces but that is not the case. Grading is therefore conservative as the luster is consistent with many MS63 examples seen. Housed in 2015 style PCGS holder. A quality offering from the Saco River Collection.
	1878-CC GSA Hoard	MS64+	NGC 4657507001		Choice	$1875	GSA Holder, Choice Original, Frosty Cartwheel Luster, Accurately Graded, Vicksburg Collection.

The example offers vibrant cartwheel luster and minimal abasions. A faint golden skin is evident on the surfaces. Housed in original GSA holder with NGC banded certification. No box or papers. Another significant offering from the Vicksburg Collection.

GFRC is most pleased to be offering a choice original example of the 1878-CC Morgan dollar with 90 degree clockwise reverse rotation. Most examples handled by GFRC and seen on eBay will exhibit a 45 or 55 degree reverse rotation. This 90 degree rotated example is covered with thick crusty gray patina. Surfaces and rims are abrasion free and excellent for the grade. Housed in 2015 PCGS Gen 6.0 holder. The PCGS label reads "Mint Error 90 Deg CW Rotated Dies". A really cool offering from the MUrphys Collection that warrants special consideration.

	1878-S	MS64	NGC 3662864004		Choice	$215	Attractive Aquamarine Cartwheel Luster, Accurately Graded, Saco River Collection. Aquamarine-blue obverse toning is the highlight of this lovely 1878 San Francisco Morgan. The GFRC images are quite inadequate in capturing the frosty obverse cartwheel luster so you will have to use your imagination. Accurately graded since there are two micro blemishes on the cheek but the eye appeal is well beyond your typical BU MS64 Morgan. Housed in newer NGC holder. Another quality toner Morgan from the Saco River Collection.

	1880-S	MS65	PCGS 19858614		Gem	$285	Vivid Rose, Blues, Aquamarine, Mirrored Surfaces, Cartwheel Luster. Being selective on toned Morgans is standard operating procedure at GFRC. Getting them to photograph properly is a significant challenge with many attempts to remove lighting reflections. I'm finally pleased with these images. Toning is multicolor rainbow with gold, rose and blues on the obverse and aquamarine and gold on the reverse. Many 1880 San Francisco examples come lightly PL as is the case with this example. Under bright light, the PL surfaces accentuate the colorful toning and adds a new dimension of enjoyment. As one would expect from an MS65 graded piece, the fields and main devices are blemish free. Housed in old blue label PCGS holder. CAC approval is fully warranted.
	1880-S	MS63	raw		Choice	$60	Choice Original, Radiant Cartwheel Luster, Accurately Graded. Radiant cartwheel dominates on this impressive 1880 San Francisco struck Morgan dollar. Surfaces offer a steely texture as compared to the blast white frosty appearance that is so common. The 1880-S and 1883 Morgans are perfectly matched and suggested to be purchased as a pair. GFRC images are very accurate.

Housed in newer NGC holder with CAC approval. CAC approval is warranted given the eye appeal and originality.

Rare NGC 2 generation holder with white paper label and white plastic insert. A short lived issue as it become apparent that a plain white label on white plastic was not an ideal solution. This holder is reported to have had a shorter life span than the infamous Gen 1 black insert. Realistically, the NGC holder is driving the asking price but let's not forget the lovely 1881-S Morgan that is housed inside. A gem with mirrored field that emit stunning reflective luster. Obverse has one field abrasion by eyes that holds these piece back from a higher grade. Reverse surfaces are unabraded. Another exciting new offering from Jim Poston.

Frosty white luster and vibrant cartwheels are the highlight of this lovely 1891-CC Morgan dollar. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.1 (2002-2004) holder without the VAM variety attribution in the label given old holder type. An AU58 duplicate from the Twin Lakes Collection to consider.
	1892-CC	MS61	PCGS 11143367		Choice	$1700	New May 29! important Carson City Date, Reflective Cartwheel Luster, Choice Original Surfaces, Conservative Grading, Malvern Collection. A better Morgan Carson City date with mintage of 1,352,000. This 1892-CC offering from the Malvern Collection is most pleasing at the assigned MS61 grade level. Many collectors have come to expect issues at the MS61 grade level; excess marks or subdued luster. I'm sorry to disappoint those expectations as this example radiates crisp reflective luster with active cartwheels. Field are lightly mirrored while the devices are frosty. Abrasions are minimal with just a single mark on the cheek and some light field chatter. Please remember that reflective fields amplify marks leading to lower assigned grades which I believe is the case here. A rose-gold toning arc covers the upper obverse and lower reverse. Conservatively graded and housed in PCGS Gen 6.0 holder with CAC approval. Worthy of special consideration as CAC approval validates what my eyes see.
	1892-CC	VG08	raw		Original	HOLD $150	New July 21! Crusty Original Surfaces, Honest Wear, Scarce Date, Murphys Collection. 1892-CC is a popular Morgan dollar Carson City date. This well circulated example offers uniform gray patina with embedded aquamarine during bright light viewing. Rims are high and bold. Surfaces are entirely blemish free. Worthy of a circulated Morgan dollar Dansco or Whitman album set. A cool Carson City offering from the Murphys Collection.
	1892-S	EF40	raw		Original	$375	Crusty Original Gray, Perfect for Grade. A perfectly original 1892 San Francisco strike with choice surfaces and crusty gray patina. Morgan collectors well understand the rapid price increases between VF 30 through AU50 where this date becomes a four figure coin in AU50. The images accurately capture the overall quality.
	1894	MS62	PCGS 37927240		Choice	$3300	Key Date, Choice Original Surfaces, Frosty Cartwheel Luster, Light Gold Patina, Considerable Old Time Eye Appeal, Bradenton Collection. Off the market for several decades and previously stored in a custom Capital Plastic holder as part of a larger collection in central Florida. GFRC has been slowly handling this Bradenton collection and is pleased to be offering the key date 1893 and 1894 Morgan dollars. This 1894 offering is so wholesome and choice! Surfaces are 100% naturally toned with no traces of being dipped. Frosty luster is uninterrupted on both sides with active cartwheels. A silver gray patina contains embedded gold that is more evident at the rims. Mintage is only 110,000 with many dipped examples seen at mint state grade levels. Natural eye appeal is so pure and attractive with few abrasions at the assigned grade. I just cannot stress this point enough. Freshly graded and housed in new 2015 style PCGS 6.0 holder.
	1896	MS64 Star	NGC 2656065005	VAM-20	Gem	$625	VAM-20, Gem Original Toning. An attractive piece of eye candy with vivid reverse rainbow toning. This piece provides bold cartwheel luster that allow the reverse colors to simply explode under bright light. The obverse also features a colorful rainbow arc that adds more character. This piece is also the VAM-20 variety with repunched or line in 6 digit in the date. Fresh to market as part of a four coin lot purchased at CSNS and just back from NGC. NGC liked the piece assigning it an MS64 Star grade for eye appeal. No attempt CAC attempt on this fresh piece.
	1896-O	AU58	PCGS 21886629		Original	$345	New July 3! Better Date Morgan, Ideal AU58 Value Grade, Frosty Luster, Untoned Surfaces, Twin Lakes Collection. A better date Morgan dollar that is available in circulated grades, but becomes scarce in mint state. The AU58 grade is ideal value point for collectors as near mint state details and luster are available at a small fraction of mint state pricing. This offering is accurately graded with frosty cartwheel luster and untoned surfaces. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.4 (2005-2011) holder. Another quality AU58 graded offering from the Twin Lakes Collection.
	1897-O	EF45	raw		Original	$65	Original, Olive Gray Patina, Scarce Date. A strictly original example with light olive gray patina throughout obverse and reverse. 1897 New Orleans date pricing ramps quickly in AU or better with problem free EF examples being scarce. Conservative grading as always on Morgan dollars.
	1897-O	EF45	raw		Original	$45	Scarce Grade For Date, Light Gray Toning, One Reverse Line, Accurately Graded.
	1898-O	MS63	NGC Fatty 123345024		Gem	$795	Early Generation NGC 2 White Label Holder, Gem Original, Frosty Luster, Gold CAC Approval, Jim Poston Consignment. Rare NGC 2 generation holder with white paper label and white plastic insert. A short lived issue as it become apparent that a plain white label on white plastic was not an ideal solution. This holder is reported to have had a shorter life span than the infamous Gen 1 black insert. Realistically, the NGC holder and Gold CAC approval are driving the asking price but let's not forget the lovely 1898-O Morgan that is housed inside. A gem Morgan dollar that has been obviously undegraded back in the late 1987 timeframe. CAC recognized this fact and awarded a Gold CAC sticker. Bold frosty luster is consistent with a higher grade. Mottled gray-gold toning is consistent on both sides and validates the strict originality. Another vintage holder offering from Jim Poston.
	1903	MS64	PCGS 84164645		Choice	$210	GFRC Summer FUN Show Trip New Item - Santa Fe Collection. Freshly graded and housed in 2015 style PCGS holder. Full descriptions after returning Maine office. This piece will be in Summer FUN cases unless reserved.
	1903-S	VG08	raw		Original	$75	Rare Date, Affordable Grade, Original Gun Metal Gray Patina, Accurately Graded.
	1904	MS62+	raw		Choice	$175	Choice Original, Steely Silver Gray Surfaces, Frosty Luster, Accurately Graded. A better date Morgan in scarce grade. Surfaces are choice and provide a steely gray appearance.
	1904-O	MS64	PCGS 32425876		Choice	$235	Near Gem Original, Rose/Aquamarine Patina, Cartwheel Luster. A wonderful dual sided toned Morgan on a bit better date. Bold cartwheel luster coupled with bullseye toning produce spectacular eye appeal. Let's start with the obverse; light rose center that quickly transitions to aquamarine during in hand viewing. The reverse is similar but with more golden hues. Placing this dollar under bright light is a lot of fun. The aquamarine shifts to sky blue with a bold gold ring between legends at the rim. This piece offers MS65 eye appeal but is grade limited by a few tiny ticks that require a 10x loupe to locate. Housed in new 2015 style PCGS holder. The lighter reverse area between 9:00 and 12:00 is typical lighting reflections during photography. This Morgan offers consistent toning on obverse and reverse.
	1921	AU58	PCGS 18314292		Original	$34	Lustrous, Brilliant, Twin Lakes Collection.. Representing the last year of the Morgan dollar, the 1921 almost stands as its own type, separated by nearly two decades from the last Morgans struck in 1904. Indeed, the original hubs were destroyed in 1910 and the engraver George Morgan had to recreate these for the 1921 issue. The 1921s thus exhibit shallower relief than the earlier coins. Other differences exist, and it is well worth comparing with a glass in hand. This example is brilliant with just a touch of golden toning in the right obverse field, lustrous and technically only limited by a few cheek ticks. A quality AU58 set offering from the Twin Lakes Collection.
Peace Dollars
	1922	MS64	PCGS 80877461		Gem	$1600	Gem Original, Exceptional Dual Sided Toning, Frosty Cartwheel Luster, Accurately Graded, Seal Beach Collection. Little needs to be said as the GFRC images speak for themselves. Housed in 2015 PCGS Gen 6.0 holder with CAC approval. Pure eye candy from the Seal Beach Collection.
	1923	MS64	raw		Gem	$650	Gem Toner, Amazing Rainbow Colors, Frosty Cartwheel Luster, Well Struck. Images accurately capture the amazing array of rainbow colors found on this gem original 1923 Peace dollar. What the GFRC images are unable to capture is the frosty cartwheel luster that radiates through the rainbow toning. Purchased from a GFRC customer as he is divesting the contents of a safety deposit box. An incredible Peace dollar as few are ever seen completely toned over and strictly original as found with this offering.
	1924-S	AU58	PCGS 20854384		Original	$135	Original, Toned, Twin Lakes Collection.. A better-date Peace dollar, and prized at the uncirculated level. Bowers notes that these were represented in the Treasury hoard releases in smaller quantities than other issues. This example has light beige obverse "skin" and a silver-toned reverse. Occasional crust is seen in protected areas such as the eagle's primary feathers and the legend. A quality AU58 set offering from the Twin Lakes Collection.
	1926	MS64	PCGS 84974659		Gem	$295	Gem, Frosty, Rim-Toned.. Mintages in the Peace dollar series fall greatly after 1925, adding to the appeal of this 1926-dated example. One's eye is immediately captured by the spectacular obverse rim toning. Rings of gold, ruseet and blue surround a fully brilliant figure of Liberty at the center. The reverse is largely brilliant with the exception of a few letters in the legend. The strike is typical for a Peace dollar, with the reverse letting in particular not deeply impressed. A few ticks above the reverse eagle preclude a higher technical grade. Another beauty from the Seal Beach Collection, and housed in a PCGS Gen 6.0 holder (2015-present).
	1926	MS63	PCGS 31874821		Choice	$95	Choice Original, Light Golden Patina, Accurately Graded. This slight better date Peace dollar is obvious original with a light coating of gold patina. Liberty's cheek and overall surfaces are blemish free for the assigned grade. For collectors who wish to take on a different numismatic challenge. Housed in 2014 generation PCGS holder.
	1926	MS63	raw		Choice	$95	Choice Original, Attractive Orange Gold Rim Toning. Lovely toning that is not often seen. Plenty of luster at the MS63 grade level.
	1926-D	MS64	raw		Original	New Price $290	Beautiful Light Pastel Toning, Frosty Cartwheel Luster, Well Struck, Gansu Collection. 1926 Denver strikes are definitely a better date in mint state condition. This example is accurately graded at the MS64 level with attractive pastel rainbow toning. Nicely toned Peace dollars are difficult to locate let alone a better date strike. Bright light viewing exposes frosty cartwheel luster that accentuates the pastel colors. From the Gansu Collection assembled by Gerry Fortin during the 2011-2013 timeframe and now returning to United States.
