suipakpaikungfu Pillar of the Community United States 992 Posts	Posted 03/05/2023 3:49 pm The 303 number is misleading. More like 3000 were struck. Report this Post to the Staff
dsking Pillar of the Community United States 2365 Posts	Posted 03/05/2023 5:37 pm The history behind the Morgans and where they may have been is what brought me to collect them! Thanks for the read livingwater! Coin World and the Numismatist always have interesting articles! Report this Post to the Staff
