I do have a feeling these 4 have been dipped but they were selling all of them together so I figured I'd give it a shot. Here's a pic of the 4.

Is there something wrong with my math? 7 morgans even at junk silver rates would go for more than $100. Silver would have to drop below $14 for even junk silver to get down to $14.28 per FV $, wouldn't it?

at $16.51 spot, a morgan is ~ $12.77 x 7 = ~ $90, so he was paying about $1.90 over per coin. Awesome deal.

Some of them look AU with maybe a possibility that 1 or 2 of them could be MS. I think you made out very well!

What are the dates and mintmarks? I can't really see from the pictures. However, that 1893(?) in that upper right corner of the last picture has a fishy, almost fake look about it. It would help if you post single shots of each coin.

that one in the lower left corner of the image with four in it...those spots look like rust spots. Did you check them to make sure they aren't steel fakes?

Usually even relatively low grade silver dollars are $20 atleast each here in all but the worst grades. Please post individual photos and list the dates and mint marks. As long as they are real you got a super great deal on them. If you are hoping to flip them to a dealer you probally won't make much they would most likely pay $14 apiece or $99. You paid barely over spot for them.

Pics of just the front and back of the 1893 can tell us a whole lot on how will you did, or didn't, do!

If you haven't already, I suggest that you give them the ring test to make sure you don't have cast fakes.

If everything checks out you did great. Even with one fake you did good! Of course if you did get a fake I'd go back to the shop.

It is a 98 not 93. I am at work so can't do any tests on them now but did tap edges together last night and sounded like silver will check into them more tonight.

I checked magnatisim and none of them are magnetic. So I'm doubting they r steel. I'm thinking they are heavly toned and then dipped and not done well and its coming off maybe? Here is a closer pic. Can only take cell phone pics so not the greatest.
