I bought 30 Morgan silver dollars for $16.50 each. Is that a good deal? If it is, think I should pick up some more? Some them are culls, but others look to be in decent shape. I'll post some pics when I get them in the mail. |

That's an outstanding deal, culls or not.

I think it's a very good deal and I'd be interested if you picked up some more to list on CCF!  I haven't gone to any coin shops but we do have a pretty big flea market with a few booths of coins. One guy had a junk bin of Morgans for $28 each. I passed. In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

As of today's silver prices cull Morgans are $13.13. Unless you have a reason to collect culls or very worn Morgans I don't see the advantage of buying for that price per each!

I don't mind paying that price at all - seeing that someone paid me almost $17.50 for a beat up, worn, scratched, and probably cleaned common date Peace dollar. |

Alternatively... you could share your source with us!  The cheapest I've seen near me is still $20 each for junk Morgans and Peace dollars. It also depends how bad the culls are. Can you share pics?

Its a good price. 16-20 is average for decent non key date morgans

You should make yourself aware of the top 100 list of vams; you could get decent coins that way for a good price... Ive found a nice clashe E in the junk morgan box at my LCS

With bulk buying, VAM's seems to be a good little bonus with these, if you happen to be lucky enough. The obvious next step is to learn whatever you can with VAM's. Get into a VAM club! |

Well, the guy is about out, and I think he has saved most of them for me, because I am picking up another batch.

Really not a bad gamble if you pick up a few VG or F pieces in the mix.  |

Well, among the coins was a 1904 S and some nice VF coins. Also, I just bought another cull for $18. It was a 1889 S!
