7/8TF Strong
MS64 PCGS
42669932

Choice $715 New April 14! 7/8TF Strong Doubling, Brilliant Radiance, Vibrant Cartwheels, Peripheral Gold, Scenic Lakeview Collection. We open the newest Scenic Lakeview consignment release with an 1878 7/8TF example with brilliant radiance and vibrant cartwheels. By now everyone knows the story of how the original Morgan 8 tail feather design was altered to seven tail feathers. In actuality, bad eagles have ten to twelve tail feathers, so what was all the fuss about? This lot is the famous die making error with a 7TF hubbing over an original 8TF die. The separate hubbings are easily seen on the piece under 10x. Luster falls into the solidly frosted category with swirling cartwheels under a bright light. The thin peripheral gold arc enhanced the overall eye appeal. Overall, a choice example that is fairly priced. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2024) holder.

46283806

Gem $3250 Scarce in Full Gem, Mirrored Fields, Gorgeous Toning, First Class Eye Appeal. For those not intimate with the Morgan dollar series, the 8 Tail Feather variant was a hub die error as eagles do not have 8 tail feathers. Only 3/4 of a million were struck with the date being scarce in full gem. This Summer Baltimore new purchase certainly qualifies as a notable gem given the mirrored fields, sharp reflective luster, and gorgeous toning. The bright light visuals are eye catching including swirling cartwheels. If in the market for a truly special first year Morgan strike, please give this gem toner special attention.

Choice $875 Near-Gem Original, Natural Frosted Luster, Well Preserved, Scenic Lakeview Collection. This first 1878 Morgan dollar issues comes with the 8 Tail Feather reverse which is ornithologic impossible as bald eagles have 7 tail feathers.

This survivor sports natural frosted luster with faint gold coloration that is synonymous with strict originality. Surfaces are essentially unabraded with a single contact mark at the junction of Liberty's jaw and neck. An excellent example for type with that all important green bean.

37833000

Choice $425 Dual Sided Toning, Brilliant Frosted Luster, Swirling Cartwheels, Perfectly Original. Since starting the GFRC business, there has always been an affinity for toner Morgans. Over time, I've been hand selecting CAC approved toners with coloration that is consistent with originality expectations. Let's face it, there are ample amounts of retoned Morgans out in the market with what I consider to be unnatural colors. This 1878-S example offers the classic obverse aquamarine, copper-gold, and blues on the obverse and delineated green and copper-gold on the reverse that could have paper origins.

Steely-frosted fields offer undisturbed viewing enjoyment under your favorite light source. Light golden hues add the right amount of charm to the clean surfaces.

Choice HOLD
$1075
Superbly Original, Dusty Silver-Gray Patina, Frosted Luster, CAC Approval. 1894-O Morgan dollars are a bit challenging to evaluate. A few mint bag were released on the East coast during the 1950 followed by another small release in the early 1960s. Regardless, this date has proven to be rare in Mint State with AU58s being at the knee of the value curve. Further more, there is a wide disparity between certified quantities and those approved at CAC. The CDN CAC report shows a dramatic price increase starting at MS62 with five figure pricing at Choice Mint State. This new offering is certainly a compelling example with brilliant frosted luster and dusty silver-gray patina. Hurry, as I don't expect this piece to be around for long. Housed in new large font NGC holder with CAC approval.

212210

Original $850 New March 13! Numismatically Interesting Date, Frosted Luster, Lovely Slider, Old Accugrade Holder. A slider AU 1896-O Morgan dollar with faint rub. This date is numismatically interesting given its availability in circulated grades with most Mint State survivors arriving from bag releases. According to Bowers, "nearly all pieces are poorly struck with average to poor luster. Many "slider" AU coins exist; these are sometimes sold as "Uncirculated." Bowers is spot concerning this newly consigned lot. The frosted luster is present from decent mint bloom. The center strike is weak at the ear and on the eagle's breast. Housed in a obsolete Accugrade holder that was copyrighted by Alan Hagar which began operations during 1984. Offers are welcomed.

Choice $3550 Challenging San Francisco Date, Frosty White Luster, Accurately Graded, Choice Overall, Scenic Lakeview Collection. 1896 San Francisco struck Morgan dollars saw limited release in bag or roll quantities. Q. David Bowers estimates that about half of the total mintage was melted under the 1918 Pittman Act. As a result, this date is quite scarce at the offered grade and becomes rare at higher Mint State levels. A new GFRC client turned consignor is releasing this frosty white example that has been accurately graded and warrants a GFRC choice quality rating. Tightly textured granular mint frost is consistent on both sides with moderate cartwheel rotations under a bright light. The obverse has abrasions on the cheek and adjacent field consistent with the certified grade. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2023) holder.

Market Acceptable $525 Better San Francisco Date, Partially Mirrored, Net Graded. 1896-S date has a noteworthy history with the date being rare until the 1950s when bags were paid out from the San Francisco Mint.

The Scenic Lakeview has released this partially mirrored example that is housed in yellow label ANACS holder. Under a bright light, the fields are obviously mirrored though abraded with faint chatter and some hairlines. Though not a perfect specimen in terms of surfaces, the overall mirrored eye appeal is quote compelling as it has been net graded.

$1275 Superb Original Toning, Frosted Luster, Accurately Grade, CAC Approval. Light copper-gold and peripheral obverse blues provide for an above average viewing experience as compared to omnipresent frosty white examples. Frosted luster has a light granular texture while the cartwheels become vibrant under a bright light. This piece is accurately graded given the contact points on the lower neck. However, this is an eye appeal play for those who love their Morgans with colorful original skins. A better late date San Francisco strike with lots of character. Housed in PCGS Gen 3.1 (1993-1998) old green holder with CAC approval.

Choice $1125 1st Class Eye Appeal, Brilliant Frosted Luster, Dancing Cartwheels, Fully Choice, Scenic Lakeview Collection. This 1902-S Morgan exhibits frosted luster and swirling cartwheels that are consistent with a higher grade. The reverse is particularly vibrant and pleasing. Abrasions on the Liberty's jaw and upper left obverse field are grade limiting. Overall, I'm comfortable with the certified grade as a balance between luster/cartwheels and marks. There are hints of light gold on the upper obverse and on the rim. I am not aware of this piece being submitted to CAC. Overall, a choice example with blazing luster at a competitive offer price. Housed in new large font NGC holder.

42366149

Gem $875 New April 14! Final Year Issue, Creamy Frosted Luster, Gem Original, Scenic Lakeview Collection. The 1921 dated Morgan issue presents an interesting back story. Few were released upon issue, followed by the mintage being released at intervals between 1930 through 1950. Few original bags were saved. Obverse strike weakness is typical for the issue with many saved over the years. This date become more elusive at the full gem level as is the case for this Scenic Lakeview lot. The creamy frosted luster is immediately eye catching along with the light golden hues. Surfaces are unabraded and consistent with TPG grade. The center obverse strike is as noted by Bowers. Some would call the luster satiny as a side note. Worthy of being rated a gem. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2024) holder.

Original $225 VAM 4 Doubled Motto, Brilliant Frosty Luster, Twin Lakes Collection. I don’t profess to be enlighted with respect to Morgan and Peace dollar VAMs. However, the doubling on the engravers initials and on (TR)UST is seen with my 10x loupe. Surfaces are strictly original with ample mint frost. Accurately graded due to some luster breaks on the center curls. Priced consistent with the PCGS price guide.

Choice $925 New April 16! Steely Radiance, Swirling Cartwheels, CAC Approved, Scenic Lakeview Collection. This 1927 Philadelphia strike has the right "pizazz" under a bright light as the steely luster is notable and welcomed. Also important with any large Mint State silver piece are the swirling cartwheels which this piece excels at. The obverse center strike is partial as is typical of the issue. Under a loupe and lamp, the lower obverse toning spots present golden hues. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2024) holder with CAC approval.
