Owner's Comments

Acquired from my good friend the late Mike DeFalco. This amazing Morgan is the finest toned Morgan I have ever seen. Taking into account the combination of pristine surfaces and the absolute stunning, lustrous, and totally clear, rim to rim color. This Morgan Dollar had been known for many years as "The Killer Tomato" and the color fits it to a tee. So with that said and it`s former history I decided to keep it the same name that so many people know it as......
