One tube each 1883 and 1885-O Morgan dollars. One tube each 1883 and 1885-O Morgan dollars.
Lot Title: One tube each 1883 and 1885-O Morgan dollars.
Description: A pair of Morgan dollar tubes, consisting of common issues: 1883 and 1885-O. The latter tube appears to contain coins been transferred directly from an original paper roll, as it features two "end toners", as well as consistent edge patina. The grade range is from MS-63 through MS-65. Judging by differences in edge toning, the 1883 tube is comprised of coins from multiple rolls, and they grade MS-63 through MS-64, with a couple of candidates for a higher grade.

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
