I stand corrected. I would like to buy the remaining 110 Morgans. I have bought 5-6 rolls of Dollars in the last year and have never been offered prices like that.

Actually I like Morgans but they seem to be overpriced and a really nice slabbed one is costly especially for the key dates. Also completing a collection of Morgans is beyond most collectors means just to get them in mint state condition. I find Commemoratives to be the New Morgans. I say that because they are mostly silver except for the clad issues, they have much lower mintages. The older commemoratives even in MS66 or MS67 are still affordable even though I will admit that some are a few thousand dollars. I have just purchased a 1948 PDS (NGC) MS 65,65 and 66 Booker T. Washington Set that I got for $410. As for the Modern Commemoratives; they are easily obtainable in MS69 and MS70. Usually you can find them in MS 69 reasonable and though I usually go for the 70 grade they are still reasonable if you look around. The moderns come in Proof and MS. Usually MS is more valuable cause less of them were issued but you can't go wrong with proof. I don't want to collect the complete set but even if I did it would still be possible to do at a reasonable cost. I have acquired a nice set of Modern Commemoratives and I have a mixture of MS69 Proofs and MS70 and MS70 proofs. The thing that I really like about commemoratives older or newer is the History behind each commemorative; very interesting reading it is. Those are my reasons for Commemoratives over Morgans.
