 Always wanted to buy a short roll myself. One day I will. I look forward to seeing what you find.

Quote: Let's just say, more than I could ever get out of them, regardless of what I find Was only asking to help future buyers not make the same mistake.. There are a few ebay seller's who do this for a living.. Offer uncirculated rolls, for what seems an ok price. But 99% of these rolls are recently made, Not old original rolls, if there is no toning on the outside coins, they haven't been sitting around for 50 years.. These are put together by the seller to maximize profits..

"Original Rolls"? I thought Morgan dollars were kept in bags at the bank, never in rolls.

I at least found a Top 100. I remember finding a few of these in my past VAMming, so not a rare find, by any means but I'll take it.  1896-P VAM-19
