180 is a good deal for the coin. Without the gash in liberty's chin she is a solid 62. I'd be happy with her, now you only have 12 more to go.. good luck.

I agree with most here, nice coin, probably a 61 or 62. Just a couple of suggestions. GSA Dollars came in different holders. Some say "uncirculated silver dollar", and others say just "silver dollar" at the bottom of the holder. You need to learn the difference. Also, there are different types of certificates. Some are numbered and some are not. The numbered ones generally come with the holders that say "uncirculated silver dollar" and the "generic" certificates come with the holders that say "silver dollar". There is a good introductory book that you might enjoy. Carson City Morgan dollars Featuring the Coins of the GSA Hoard, by Adam Crum, Selby Ungar, and Jeff Oxman. This is a very interesting series to collect, and the more you learn about it's history, the the more exciting the collecting becomes. Good Luck. |

coinmaniac1, here is some more information that might be helpful. There is still more to learn about the GSA certificates. GSA Morgan dollar SERIAL NUMBERED CARDS If you are searching to buy an original GSA (GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION)morgan silver dollar in the original blue box and a card, or certificate is offered be sure and look at the first two numbers because these represent the year of the coin. Example if you buy an 1879 Carson City Morgan silver dollar the card should have 79 as first two numbers, and the rest of the numbers represent the serial number. Numbers are in blue and should total (8). Serial numbered cards were put in with the GSA coin holders that are marked UNCIRCULATED SILVER DOLLAR. Generic cards without serial numbers at the top were put in with the GSA coin holders that only say SILVER DOLLAR . Some cards have special information such as over dates, and are usually a small card, not full sized as the numbered or generic ones. |
