Wow Congratulations to the winners!
I just want to take a moment to realize that this means there was approximately 87 grams lost due to circulation, if you estimate that in uncirculated condition the total would be 3777 grams give or take a few
That's at least three whole Morgan dollars right there!

You know, most of raw Morgans and Peace dollars were purchased in two big lots. I really need to go through all of them thoroughly when I get a chance... But I had some really worn coins hiding at the bottom.

Anyway, congrats Crazyb0.
Rest in Peace

Congrats to the winners!

It appears I underestimated the circulation wear and overestimated the Mint's consistency.

Now, what will you do for your 1,000th post, Joe?
