Did you weigh them? Did you see if they're magnetic? More knowledgeable members will give you a more definitive examination I'm sure. Edit: The only area that looks a little different to me may be the rims. But, they didn't strike up the same on every coin.

Scott61 New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 06/05/2020 3:07 pm They weigh 26.71 and 26.72 and are not magnetic. I was suspicious of their authenticity because the numbers in the dates look a bit different than other same date Morgans I have. Anyway, thank you all for the input and evaluation. I do greatly appreciate it, and I'm actually very happy to hear that these 2 coins are most likely authentic. Edited by Scott61 06/05/2020 3:15 pm Report this Post to the Staff
