Hello all! Hope everyone is doing well. In light of the crazy Silver prices lately, I give you this thread. "Magnificent Morgan Dollar Monday!". Post those large shiny coins. That's you also @paddyman98, and excuse me if this is a recycled post.
I have two very minor Incomplete Planchet errors on Morgans in my collection.. Later today I will create a thread on a spectacular Morgan I saw at the New York International Numismatic Convention!
I don't do a lot with Morgans. They're big, pretty coins, and I understand their popularity. It's just that you see so many of them. I tend to gravitate to other types. Still, as a Type collector, one is all but obligated to have at least ONE Morgan dollar. This is the present type coin in my collection.
One of these is a fake, sticks to a magnet. I have many Morgans but they are in storage until my house move. Here's a box with each mintmark.
Bet it's the one at bottom right, eh? The lettering and date look a little wonky on that one, not to mention the overall flat appearance.
Once upon a time I had a Decades/ Mints set. Here is the sole survivor. I wasn't that sad to have to have sold many of them. As mentioned, Morgans are plentiful. Still, something would die inside me if I had to sell my 1904-O, Went With The Wind, final year for Morgan's dollar:
I am going to guess the bottom left coin is fake. This is after I forgot to post My top left coin post and have rewritten. James
