    Dear Wren,

    Welcome to the board and on the new adventure. Your coin is worth probably melt price. It's always good to read as much you can and the books are available in libraries. If you are new to this hobby, you will love it down the road and will trade it for nothing, so keep writing and get valueable replies from many friends you have on this board.

    Glassman.

    It looks to be either a F12 to F15 (Fine condition). It retails for about $26 in F12. If you were to sell it you may only get $18 - $20 for it. But that's more than melting price.

    What ever you do don't decide to clean it or dip it in jewelery cleaner.

    I agree! My first Morgan, and really my first old coin, was an 1899-O Morgan.
