I was wanting to know if I should buy a coin, it is a 1890 CC Morgan silver dollar and it is in pretty good condition, don't have a pic of it but if its worth it for 100 bucks then I will go back tomorrow and get it, what should I do? I know they can be worth some money depending on what grade it is but I know it's in fairly decent condition and easily readable and they guy wants 100 bucks for it... Will it be a good buy? *** Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. *** |

Without pictures it's impossible to tell anything about the coin.

You've essentially asked us to give you the value of a 1969 Mustang. We dont even know if the car has an engine, but you would like to know the value.

When buying raw coins you should try to learn the basics of coin grading.
Most times you can get close to what the grade might be. For example,
if the coin has wear but most of the details are still there, it is most likely a
VF or XF coin. You also need to learn how a cleaned coin looks and what
damage to look for. Things like scratches, rim bumps and finger prints will
reduce the value of the coin.
If you could tell us you are looking at a problem free VF coin, we might be
able to give a opinion on value.

My suggestion is don't buy it if you don't know what you're doing.
