dsking Pillar of the Community United States 2365 Posts	Posted 05/10/2006 5:04 pm Acquired 3 more Morgans today. 1884-O EF 1900 AU 1902 EF I got all three for $50. These were coins that I needed to fill in some gaps in my collection. They are a little DMPL except the 1900 has a lot of it's mint luster. I don't buy coins that have badly marked facial features. I'm happy! Although I have quite a few Morgans, I'm fairly new at collecting them for myself. Was this a good buy? Report this Post to the Staff

dsking Pillar of the Community United States 2365 Posts	Posted 05/10/2006 8:16 pm I sure hope so. I bought them from my local dealer and he goes right from the 2006 Red Book. I'm taking a much closer look at each coin to see if (in his haste) he missed something. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

dsking Pillar of the Community United States 2365 Posts	Posted 05/11/2006 09:58 am These coins were loose in his stock. Since he knows that I'm rather new at grading he asked me to look at the coins and to grade them. I took out my little 10 power and the above is what I came up with. He then handed me the Red Book. All three added up to $56 so we compromised on $50. However, we both missed the O on the 1884 and that was a nice surprise when I got home! tee hee I always like it when he's busy because he tends to say "ok" a little quicker. I'm very careful with this dealer (because he's a dealer) but, so far so good. He's always very helpful too! He knows that he has an addicted collector on his hands! :-0 He usually has his lttle Indians out right after I hit the door, but I keep him guessing. I think my interest in Morgans took him by surprise yesterday! Report this Post to the Staff
