marbury518 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 552 Posts	Posted 11/23/2013 10:28 am I got this coin which came with 3 Morgan dollars. Any idea what it is and does it have any value in this grade? Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16864 Posts	Posted 11/23/2013 11:40 am It isn't a "coin". It's an Indian-style bullion round. Whether it's genuine silver or not, you'd have to test. These things are being faked in base-metal... as are Morgan dollars. Which leads me to ask, why does one of the dollars appear to be bigger than the other two? Is it just a trick of the camera lens? If not, then I'd have to lay doubts on the authenticity of the dollars. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

marbury518 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 552 Posts	Posted 11/30/2013 6:52 pm What is a heavily stylised OM? Had the edge tested in jewellers today and it is silver, much to my surprise. Report this Post to the Staff
