Very nice coffee can!! I was bidding on an 1892 S Morgan in similar shape to your two and it went for close to $100. The 1879 CC is a nice find as well. I would easily guess $150. ebay is an excellent way to gauge your coins against like ones. Congratulations!

There's an important point to be made here.

Aw, here he goes again....

A coin's value is not what some list publishes or what some dealer asks - it's what that coin sells for in the real world, where people are actually spending money. For lesser grades, ebay is the place to look. For better coins, register at Heritage Auctions for access to their sale database to observe the results of thousands of auctions.

I agree 100%. All prices are negotiable.

Remember...it's a simple rule no matter what you are selling...it's only worth what somebody else is willing to give you for it. That being said, do your homework and decide how much or how little you are willing to take for it and begin your negotiations! Enjoy and good luck!

Man!! I wish I could find a cool coffee can like that! Those are nice circulated Morgans! I agree with getting a collector book for your Morgans and finding out what you have. the book also (usually) list the mintage in the back and the entire history of the coin in the front. VERY interesting and it puts the whole thing in perspective. (I use Dansco collector books, personally). ebay has many sellers offering coin collecting books for good prices. ebay also can let you peruse other's coins and see where yours fit in as far as grade and condition. Congratulations on your find!!
