Timmy30 Valued Member United States 155 Posts	Posted 02/11/2011 11:11 am Well, I didn't have one in my collection yet and I couldn't stand it. I happened to catch a commercial on TV last night for a jewelery repair shop. Halfway through the commercial they started flashing Peace and Morgan dollars. But never mentioned that they sold coins. I woke up this morning and paid them a visit. I left with this 1888-O Morgan for $28 USD after tax. How did I do? Be brutal, this is my first Morgan purchase and if I fouled up I need to know. I naked eyed it for VAMS but didn't find anything. I really need a lens Thanks guys and take care. Report this Post to the Staff

Timmy30 Valued Member United States 155 Posts	Posted 02/11/2011 5:36 pm So at VF-30 it looks like I paid a little over Red Book value. I don't like to overpay period but it is worth it to finally have One in my collection. Thanks for the input and I welcome any other Thoughts. Report this Post to the Staff
OneBowl Pillar of the Community United States 759 Posts	Posted 02/11/2011 6:20 pm Maybe you could have gotten something similar for a few bucks ($3-5) less, but it sounds like you like it. I do too. I love Morgans that you don't have to baby. The kind that look good but you aren't afraid to flip around in your hand. You have one there. Report this Post to the Staff
