Seeing the great idea and fun that others in the CCF Classical Forum were having, decided to hop onto this fun bandwagon. For me it was easy enough to select the coins already on my site to put together a Morgan dollar Date Set. Just needed to add a few coins from my boxes. My set can be viewed in a new page in my site here: https://fairfaxcoins.com/product-ca...an-date-set/ Let me know your thoughts on how to improve it. Currently I am missing 2 dates: 1894 and 1895. Tougher dates but doable I think... IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

OMG! They are stunning!  I love the Proof 1890!  I actually do have a circulated date set of Morgans. The last date I got was 1895-O. Mine vary from AG to Low MS (none are slabbed). I have one of every date from 1878 to 1904 and all three for 1921 - I was given a 1921-S years ago, and decided to buy a 1921-D so I would have examples of Morgans from all four mints, and then thought I may as well get a 1921-P as well as they were so cheap. |

Thanks for your kind comments.  Quote:
