Anthony86 Valued Member United States 59 Posts	Posted 03/30/2023 09:48 am Be very careful and either purchase a slab Morgan or from a reputable seller. I have the Dansco album with all the Morgan's except 12. I bought a Sigma precious metal verifier and tested all the coins. Three of them were fake. Lucky they were only $30 coins and easy to replace. Report this Post to the Staff
GLB49 Bedrock of the Community United States 26044 Posts	Posted 05/02/2023 03:52 am Go for it if you want. I'm very happy with my Morgan collection and plan on adding to it. I have three coins each year from 1878 to1890 and three from 1921. They are all in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. I think it's one of the nicer looking coins out there.

I only have one 1884 Carson City Uncirculated dollar that I didn't include in my post. It was in the coins I inherited years ago. I started my Morgan collection in 2021 and almost all of them were purchased from APMEX except six that I got from Currency And Coin. I stopped at 1890 because after that they got a little pricey.

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25275 Posts	Posted 05/02/2023 6:09 pm Raiden, you dropped $35 on a cull coins ebay listing despite warnings from the community. You could have purchased a very decent Morgan dollar with that money.

If you want decent coins, you'll have to hustle a little harder. I used to feel bad spending $35 on a handful of coins because that was a lot of money a few years ago. Now I am delving into Capped Bust halves worth $500+ per coin! Pass the junk, buy the good stuff. There are deals out there. But you have to start somewhere... Suffering from bust half fever.

jpsned Pillar of the Community United States 2205 Posts	Posted 05/03/2023 4:14 pm I wouldn't buy an dull-looking circulated Morgan like the one you showed. I would wait until I had the bread to buy one I really liked. As has been pointed out, a common date (such as a 1921 Philly) in beautiful condition can be had for not a lot of money. Save up for something like that and you'll be glad you did. You'll enjoy looking at it every day and be proud to show it off to people. Report this Post to the Staff
Bump111 Pillar of the Community United States 3325 Posts	Posted 05/04/2023 09:54 am If you want a really pretty MS Morgan, your best bet for the money would probably be an 1881-S. Most of those were very nicely struck and they made enough to sink a battleship. "Nummi rari mira sunt, si sumptus ferre potes." - Christophorus filius Scotiae Report this Post to the Staff
GLB49 Bedrock of the Community United States 26044 Posts	Posted 05/04/2023 12:33 pm The last Morgans I bought were in Dec. 2021. The order was 3 1889 BU and 3 1890 BU and they were $73 each. That was the lowest price I paid for any of my Morgans except my 1921 BUs which were $57 each. If you're going for looks then Brilliant Uncirculated is what to look for.
