I buy online often but always for a specific coin with actual pictures. If you just want a nice Morgan I'd go to a local coin shop or show. The dealer in my town has common Morgan's separated by $30,$35 and $40. I cherry pick them often and sometimes find varieties.

It's definitely legit from an established seller. What you'll get is hard to say, though. It might be an awesome exemplar or it could be a dud.

Alright guys, so here is one I think is legit

I have gotten many coins form MCM. Never an issue.
The problem with this kind of listing is that, you never know what your going to get

The fun part of collecting Morgans I think would be finding the ones that call to you, here someone else is doing the choosing. Plenty of nice stuff to pick from at that price point.

@Rainden.... For $20 more, on ebay you can buy a slabbed AU Morgan, which IMO, would be better deal than purchasing a random year/condition coin from https://www.ebay.com/itm/385432230803 . Or, if you have a LCS in your area, drop in & take a look at what they have for sale.

Morgans are the Lay's potato chips of coin collecting, you can't buy just one. Fair warning :P

I like it with crab and paprika as well as classic ones with salt.

I'll be dead in 20 or 25 years anyway, and I'm far more worried about the nasty polluted air outside or the metallic dust I get exposed to every day at work than I am about some chips. But they're a rare treat for me, I try to avoid them in general, not always an easy task!

I love salt and vinegar, personally, but my cardiologist yells at me if I eat those. I've been "addicted" to salt since I was a kid, I used to put salt on everything from pizza to tacos. That's been a hard habit to kick the last few years, but my blood pressure was getting too high to keep doing that stuff.

There's a reason that over 115 BAGS (1000 coins/per) of just the 1881-S have been graded MS65 by PCGS and NGC

Perfect reference and so true for us Morgan collectors. I was looking at them again this week, even though I have a completed date set. Well, there's always that "chip" with a different Mint. WooHoo!
