Arrived today payed $45. Thought because of the reflective surface it would be worth something but didn't notice the scratches until too late

Does the seller have a 'positive' return policy?

Sorry to hear. Sounds like you paid $45 for a $21 melt value.  The "reflective" surface is from cleaning and the coin would be worth melt probably even without the scratches.

I'm afraid you paid way too much even if it weren't scratched.   to the CCF!

It's not quite that bad. The value of cull morgans right now is around $30, you should be able to get at least that out of it

 To CCF , I have to agree , the 1921 Philly Dollar is very common and probably the cheapest of all Morgan's . Kind of hard to believe you didn't notice the awful condition that this coin was in before you handed them $45 .

Keep it as a pocket piece, after a year or two it won't look that bad

As some market speculators are anticipating & silver catches-a-bid (market term), the price per ounce appreciates in the near future for example, due to inflationary headwinds or a stock market selloff.... you'll probably be able to break even or make a little money from this purchase. As Adam E mentioned culls are around $30 ($34 in my local area), so you're not that bad off.
