Please stay away from Littleton Coins (when it comes to buying coins anyway)
If you have questions about a coin purchase, you can always come her first for advice before buying.

Sorry but you got really taken on this deal. I can't think of any scenario where ordering from a Littleton is a good idea. Their stuff is super overpriced. For those prices you like could have got original uncleaned coins in a pcgs or ngc slab. I'd recommend returning those if possible!

I agree with the above. Here is a 1880 Morgan graded by PCGS MS64 for sale on ebay for $155.00.

Looks like I will close my Littleton account. I'm sure I can do better elsewhere.

I agree with above. Littleton always overcharges for their coins they sell. Hopefully you can get your money back.

Unfortunately, common dates worth slightly more than spot silver. Please do some research on sold coins on different sites for current worth, this breaks my heart.

Your best bet is to find a local coin show to attend. You'll find much better ( and I mean much better) prices at a local show than your paying for these.
Good luck!

This is just a test to see if I can post side-by-side photos.  Success! Now I have to get used to the process. The process sort of boggles my mind.

I've always thought of Littleton as a place where people who don't know much about coins can buy a few coins just as show pieces and be happy with them. But for real collectors, there's a much larger (and cheaper) world out there.

But for real collectors, there's a much larger (and cheaper) world out there. Thats exactly why I'm going to Littleton. I'm new to collecting and am afraid of getting ripped off on ebay. I've bought a few things on ebay and I've been happy with what I got. When I get used to other sources I will buy from them. Joanne
