That's what I love about old, worn, and circulated coins. The stories they would tell...

Looks nice to me. At least you can appreciate/feel the history. Youre next one can be in a slab, graded and locked away :)

I personally have just been starting in the coin business/market. I have been starting out with Morgan and Peace dollars, I just like you was very nervous on my first purchase of a Morgan dollar, and it came out that I lost money on the deal, but hey, everything is a learning experience. You win some, you lose some. With this one, you at least bought it at a decent price, I would say hold on to it for a little bit and wait for silver to go up and then sell it to get melted down.

I don't think I could ever sell it to be melted. I'd rather sell or give it to someone who would appreciate it. I'd hate to see a piece of history destroyed.

I was up late a few nights ago and browsing ebay lots that were ending pretty soon


I do this often

Great buy, especially where silver has gone.

I have recently purchased, with in a week, about 30 of these condition coins, I asked my dealer/friend to please hold these for me if they come in, low and behold, there they were, the same VG-EF and even a few XF'S, hence the term friend, many 1901-O coins. The lot will be placed away for the rainy days ahead, I usually do not buy in these grades, but the rising prices of the AU changes every day.......TOTAL COST $1.00 over melt @ 27.00/ coin. I did not steal them, but I was treated fairly.

Good luck with your 1st bought Morgan, Mike.
