Mister Kairu Pillar of the Community United States 1911 Posts	Posted 02/03/2016 8:01 pm Hi all wasn't able to give this a good looking until now bought it and 3 other junk silver dollars at my LCS yesterday for $40 total. Is this what I think it is and an 1895S? Sure pretty worn and beat up but still... For $10 even common dates are great. Any opinions on possible value are appreciated! Report this Post to the Staff

GR58 Bedrock of the Community United States 11951 Posts	Posted 02/03/2016 8:47 pm It looks like a 1895 S to me. That would be worth looking into to. I would be curious what it's value would as a low ball Morgan. Report this Post to the Staff
Mister Kairu Pillar of the Community United States 1911 Posts	Posted 02/03/2016 8:58 pm Well GR, listing looking at ebay ones at this level seem to be at the 90-100 dollar range. Not bad for spending $10! Profits will help me upgrade my 1/10 oz gold trade for possibly a gold quarter Eagle! Maybe we will see ;) Report this Post to the Staff

Numisma Pillar of the Community United States 4963 Posts	Posted 02/03/2016 11:28 pm Great find! You could possibly use it as a pocket piece to get it to a real lowball state, but the date's barely visible as it is. Report this Post to the Staff

Justinwd Valued Member United States 311 Posts	Posted 02/04/2016 11:42 am Great find definitely a 1895 s. Why do lowball coins command such premiums though? I understand the rarer dates but I've seen common date ones go far past the book price. Report this Post to the Staff
Numisma Pillar of the Community United States 4963 Posts	Posted 02/04/2016 8:41 pm 1. Very few coins circulate enough to reach PO-01. 2. Most coins that do get that low acquire some sort of damage along the way. 3. There is a fairly narrow window between FR-02 and ungradable (missing identifying features). 4. It's interesting to imagine how many hands the coin passed through. 5. They look pretty cool. Report this Post to the Staff
