Well I have started on my collection of Morgans. Hopefully one day I can say I have completed my collection of Morgans. Here are the first three.

I keep using PCGS's Photograde as a reference for grading and I feel these are probably in AU55 or so, anyone agree?

to CCF. No pro here but they all look cleaned so they would get a "details" in the grade.

Glad to see another Morgan fan aboard! They're addictive, so be warned...

The three you've got there are really nice examples! Congrats!

Thanks all, I figured that at least the 1886 and 1889 were cleaned at some point, but it does not look to be to harsh.

to CCF fellow Morgan-ite. All three appear to be mid-upper AU examples and as srs77 mentioned, they are addicting. I've got over 400 myself and just a month ago decided to go after a complete set in the 2 volume Dansco album. Did you know you can collect them by the die pairing? ( VAM)

AboardI strongly recommend you buying a copy of The Official Red Book: A Guide Book of Morgan silver dollars by Q. David Bowers. It is an inexpensive book that can save you a lot of money. I am not a die hard Morgan dollar collector and I own a copy which has been quite useful when I had to decide which Morgan dollar to buy when I needed one for a set.

Congratulations on your first Morgans! I got my first (1882-O) back in 1976 and got one of each date in February this year when I bought an 1895-O on ebay! Not got all the mintmarks except for the 1921s...

Best of luck on your set, I hope you have deep enough pockets to finish the set out? I didn't, but I did. My father kept telling me to buy that 1893-s, but I just couldn't pull the trigger. I chose to buy bulk Morgan's, rather than the "keys".
