    i have been collecting coins and currency for a while now. i had gotten into morgan dollars after getting one from a customer when i use to work at a bank. i would say i have about 35-40 morgans to date. i had never owned a carson city morgan. well all that has changed. i have always been intrigued by the GSA morgans. so i decided go big or go home. :D these are the new additions to the collection :thumb:


    1883 Carson City GSA Hoard NGC MS63 DPL (my first DPL coin)

    Nice looking coins.

    The 1883 is a VAM with the dash under the second 8.

    You might go to http://www.vamworld.com and see if you can't identify it.

    Nice coins.
    CC's always seem to have a bit of magic attacted to them.
    And GSA coins seem to add a bit more.
