    I dont get what your saying. Are you selling them or did u pay $41 for all and asking for our opinions?

    I think he's asking if they are counterfeit.


    If that is indeed what you are aking, you will need to take better pictures.

    Where did you get them?

    I figured he was saying he got all 3 for that price... could be wrong though...

    From what I understand he is saying "That is it just a coicdence that all 3 of the inexpensive coins are the same date, or is there a reason...?"

    If they are real they are worth $33.45 each silver melt value. Test them with a good magnet to make sure they are NOT magnetic ;)

    Thanks! And tomorrow I'll buy a small electronic scales to check the small morgan collection.

    Morgan weight - it says it should weight 26.73 grams.

    I know it is a little early to determine their authenticity, but the odd toning worries me, as well as the seemingly uneven rim on the very left dollar.

    Yeah, it may be nothing, it's just a tad suspicious....

    If they're fakes, they at least look like decent ones. Sadly, there are a lot of decent fakes starting to pop up.

    Anybody buying raw coins need to carry a magnet and a acurate scales is what I think. I really wonder someone is going to sell $100.38 of silver for $41.00?

    I've discovered during my research on counterfeits from China that most (if not all) fakes coming from there are non-magnetic and weigh correctly. These include Morgans from the "Big Tree Coin Factory" and its subsidiaries.

    Ouch I did not know that!!!!!

    All of them I have ever bought have been graded and I compared the weight of the slabs to known good ones when I first got them.

    These coins are counterfeits. I have handled enough of them to tell from these pictures.
