I am also new to this Community, and just started collecting coins, because I have inherited about a few dozen Morgan silver dollars, and a few albums of stamps. It doesn't seem that stamps hold their value much after the years as well as coins do
As I was going through coin values through the PCGS website, and pretty much determined that they base their value of the coin, on the grades and the mintage numbers of the years.
And if this is the case, why has the 1899-P Morgan dollar does not have significant high value through the grades as say the 1893-P with more mintage numbers?
1893-P mintage- 378,000
1899-P mintage- 330,000

@scottb87 , Morgan dollars were widely stored by the U.S. treasury department because they were making more than were needed. The 1893 dollars were mostly issued for circulation by the mint, and thus lots of them are well worn, and high grades are very valuable, whereas a lot of the 1899 dollars were saved in vaults for many years, preserving them for the future.
Hope this helps.
