hey guys, I was able to buy a 4lb lot of world coins today for around $50 and didn't realize that there's a Morgan dollar in it after the auction finished :D. But it seems quite not so authentic to me, what do you guys think?
Sorry about the low quality of this photo.

Even in that small image it doesn't look anything near to "right."

If you have a common date circ and drop bothulated Morgan take that one and this one you think is fake on a table or counter top and see if they sound the same. If this one is a fake then it won't ring like the real silver dollar.

Either a silver round or a fake. Definitely check it and post a close up of it.

That doesn't look good. I doubt it's a silver round if you paid $50 for the group.

It's not a Morgan dollar, it doesn't look big enough compared to the coins I do recognize. That being said most of the time bulk lots have a generic image.

It looks like a copy of a Goloid Dollar pattern

The design does resemble the Goloid obverse.
