398 Morgans with 3 more in the air. Of those, 92 are slabbed and two have been cracked out to go into my Dansco albums.

I was trying to get a feel of the percentage of slabbed Morgans in ones collection. Well, as one can see, there doesn't seem to be a overall average. The numbers are all over the place.

I've only got 5 or 6 as well. Don't own a slabbed coin at all.

I have around 35 Morgans total; 10 of which are currently slabbed and another 4 or 5 will be sent in eventually.

I have 120, with one slabbed. None in albums. The other 119, almost all well circulated, sit in 2x2s in a box. I wish not to offend anyone, but the Morgan is not my favorite coin, so the ones in the box will probably stay there as I don't feel like spending the money for a Morgan Dansco to put them in. The one slabbed Morgan that I have is a 1921 MS 65 for my slabbed type set.

Exactly three: two 1921's, and an 1883-O. None are slabbed.

Slabbing is nowhere as popular in Australia as it is in the U.S.
From what I have seen in Australia, perhaps less than 1% of the Morgans I have come across, are slabbed. Almost all the freshly slabbed Morgans were intended for resale, and almost all of these are MS63 or better.

Currently 57 Morgans, of which 40 are slabbed and one is a GSA (1884-CC.) I had closer to 130 but traded a bunch of circulated Morgans recently for an 1877 IHC & a 1807 25c.

My MS slabbed date set is almost complete, need 1891, 1892, 1893, 1894, 1895 to finish the set. That's going to cost a LOT of money, so that's why I'm not working on it.

All the raw ones are in Dansco 7178/7179, trying to fill those with more circulated examples.

Morgans are beautiful coins, but I have never tried to seriously collect them. I have 14, of which, 2 are slabbed.
