Darth Morgan Pillar of the Community United States 2815 Posts	Posted 02/05/2017 4:33 pm A friend and coworker of mine owns this 1921-D Morgan dollar. I first saw it a couple of years ago, and I remembered the flip more than the coin. Anyway, I asked her if I could take a picture to show you guys/gals. When it was placed inside this flip and labeled it was then a 57 year old coin- in 1978. Pretty cool. Report this Post to the Staff

Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 02/06/2017 3:06 pm Nice but 1970s label makers were embossed press letter not inkjet printed. Looks like it was labeled in the late 90s or later. Report this Post to the Staff
Darth Morgan Pillar of the Community United States 2815 Posts	Posted 02/06/2017 10:08 pm I think someone just copied what was already marked on the flip or they replaced an old label without bothering to "update" the age. I can see the jagged Courier type font with the enlarged image. She said she got it around 1995 for $10. Report this Post to the Staff
Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 02/06/2017 10:33 pm Could be. 90s seems about right for the labels. The flip looks a lot like ones I've left in my pocket that went through the washer. Maybe that's what happened back then? Report this Post to the Staff
