WELCOME..I too think the coin was plated at one time.. the residual effects, are noticed within the lower points of the coin.. in the eye..and cotton bowls... and the flakes are seen as almost rectangular spots of color missing from the over all appearance..
if you can't have fun then why not post some dirt LOL.....
Rest in Peace

Well if I were to be cynical, they would be rational enough to put aside their greedyness on small things for greedyness on the big picture..i suppose.

I still wonder if it was plated or dug up? It looks plated to me and if so what kind of plating was on it

Welcome,

I will try not to hold your job as a LEO against you.

I spent a few years running around in a brown suit with stripes up the leg myself.

The coin pictured has almost certianly either been plated or heavily cleaned and improperly stored, it is still worth the silver value which fluctuates up and down.

20 to 30 bucks for common date morgans.

Coin collecting is fun with or without the internet.

With the internet it is a lot more fun and advances your collecting knowledge by light speed.

Mavriktu: Welcome to the CCF!

Don't have to worry about law enforcement on this Forum. Fortunately for us, coins don't fight back! Just enjoy your coins and forget about stress.

Suggestion: Scour this forum for some while, then, when you have enough money from your budget, treat yourself the the purchase of a coin which you would think you would be proud to own, then share the image of it at a time convenient to you. Most of us after collecting coins for some years, eventually indulge and get a 'star', that holds pride of place in our collection.

In Australia, it is much harder to own a gun and the death rate from all gun related causes is about 1/20th per 100,000 per year of that of the U.S.


My brother is the only person I know who has a gun. (Colt .45) The weapon has to have a vital component removed from it, the major and minor parts stored in separate lockable safes. Then gun is registered, and so is he. The safes are inspected annually at his expense.

He shoots with his Club on SAS practice range in Perth, Western Australia.

Certainly makes policing a lot safer, with a lot less risk of being shot at!

I think the plating "look" may be bad photography,if the sun ever comes out again I will try another shot sans flash,of course I could be dead wrong,if I knew anything I wouldnt be asking ,right?

To sel-691 it aint so bad,in 20 years I have only been shot once(last November),and it only grazed my finger,never missed a days work,and even got off on time that night,of course it appears I may have some nerve damage in the 1 digit of my middle finger,and the fingernail IS still black,but I do so enjoy showing folks my middle finger bo-bo if ya know what I mean.

nod2003: If I want to get rid of them, a small about of very highly volatile carbon disulphide liquid poured down their ground holes works nicely! CS2 vapour is about 3.5 times as dense as air, and it sinks into their burrows to asphyxiate them. Google 'carbon disulphide', and you will see what I mean.

We had a cat who, to avoid digging holes to do his 'busy' used to poop over the top of the ground holes made by the spiders. Curiously the spider toxin only affects higher order primates,(of which I am one), and small bugs. The spider poison is highly neurotoxic. Cats and dogs are only slightly affected.
