    Not bad :)

    Here are pics:

    Also, there isn't any gash on the cheek. There's only a little discoloration in the toning, a little line of luster or rub, and the camera made it look like a scratch, bleh.

    The story...

    I went on a longer bike ride today since it was a beautiful 65F and I made sure to end up at this coin shop I've never been to about 20 miles from my house. I walked in, all sweaty (lol), and peered around. I got ten one cent airtites, an album for my large canadian cents, and a cheap 1898 indian head cent. I then asked him if he had any morgan dollars, he had only one. I asked, "how much?" He told me he'll sell it to me for $11. Great! Then I took it, and walked out (after paying of course) :p

    His silver and supplies were were priced pretty cheaply, but everything else was a tad expensive. But a good experience nonetheless!

    Morgan dollars are 0.77344 Silver
    Informational purposes :)

    What about grade? Low MS, high AU? Luster is still present throughout most of the coin.

    Morgans around here are selling for $14-15 for Bullion so toss the melt notions out the window these days. Try finding a one ounce gold piece for $880.00.

    Nice Pickup.
