Lot 1830		1878-CC Morgan Dollar. NGC graded MS-66. An early strike here, which boasts frosty devices and slightly prooflike fields. No toning at all, and a beauty in every way.

View details and enlarged photos	Realized $2,185
Lot 1836		1879-S Morgan Dollar. Second reverse. NGC graded MS-64. Deep gold, blue and green colors spanning the obverse, and this one must have been at the top of the bag for many years. Fully struck, and lustrous beneath the hues. All things being equal, you might as well get a spectacular toned example of this date, as it is available in virtually any grade in quantity, but each toned coin is truly unique.

We like that part, "competent numismatist". The coin is bright and untoned. Breen-5551, VAM-4. Estimated Value $250-UP. View details	Realized $247
Lot 1841		1880-O Morgan Dollar. SEGS graded MS-64 "Toned". A choice example of this date that boasts delicate golden toning on both sides, probably from album storage over the years.

Lot 1852		1881-S Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded MS-65. Liberty's face has a deep fuchsia to gold area of toning which seems to have been splashed on from the lower left, past her ear the color fades to delicate ice blue over luster. On the reverse, we see just a bit of gold around the edge, otherwise all is white and pristine.

View details and enlarged photos	Realized $575
Lot 1853		1881-S Morgan Dollar. NGC graded MS-65 Prooflike. Deep ruby red at the centers with areas of gold and blue surrounding, fresh from a bag after decades of storage there.

Lot 1857		1881-S Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded MS-64. Bright on the obverse, with light gold at the rims, the reverse is a different story.

Lot 1864		1882-S Morgan Dollar. NGC graded MS-67. Deeply toned at the top of the obverse with shades of blue-green and red fading to sunset gold near Liberty's ear. Probably from a bag, where this one toned for decades. The reverse bright white save for a small area of gold at the bottom. Further, the surfaces are pristine and show few signs of contact. A toned and well preserved wonder. Estimated Value $1,500 - 2,000. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $1,840
Lot 1865		1882-S Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded MS-66. This is one of our cover coins because of its wild obverse toning. In general Liberty's head is toned bright rose red with silver, while the surrounding fields are iridescent blue and green. Near perfect surfaces, as noted by the PCGS grade, and certainly a memorable example of this otherwise common date. The reverse, remarkably, is just plain white. Let's see what the premium is for a toned example is over just another white one. Estimated Value $1,000 - 1,500. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $2,300
Lot 1866		1883-CC Morgan Dollar. MS-64. A nice example of the GSA dollars released when Nixon was President. This is another example of the dash below the second 8 in the date variety. In the Government black holder. Estimated Value $80 - 90. View details	Realized $97

Lot 1868		1883-CC Morgan Dollar. MS-60+. This one grades much higher on the reverse, all white save for an arc of toning on the lower reverse. Mounted in the GSA holder. Estimated Value $70 - 80. View details	Realized $92
Lot 1869		1883-CC Morgan Dollar. MS-60+. A nice GSA mounted dollar, untoned and frosty. This is the high dash under 8 variety. Estimated Value $50 - 75. View details	Realized $86
Lot 1870		1883-S Morgan Dollar. MS-63. A resplendent example of this scarce date, the surfaces dance with radiant luster, and the coin is without toning and thus remains solid white in color. Random scuffs from handling, but nothing deep or distracting. Liberty's cheek shows minor contact in the frost, but is fresher than that usually seen for this grade. Boldly struck and perfect for the date collector. Estimated Value $1,000 - 1,200. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $1,150
Lot 1871		1883 NGC graded MS-64 and 1884-CC PCGS graded MS-64. Both are bright. Lot of 2 coins. Estimated Value $100 - 120. View details	Realized $161
