$310 is about half of what a well circulated example is worth. If it's too good to be true.....well you know...

What is the weight on it? If silver, then probably genuine. None of the fakers bother to use the right metal.

It weighed perfect. Scale flickered between 26.7 and 26.8 which is what I see for all my genuine Morgans in my scale. I do believe it is silver as well.

If it's thicker than a genuine Morgan and the weight is correct, then it almost certainly isn't silver. The reason they made it thicker it to get the weight right when using a lighter metal.
