Alot of people like their coins (and bills) to be graded. And that's great! Me, I prefer mine raw and a little circam doesn't hurt. Just bought these 2 on ebay. Which is where the pics are from. Can't wait to see them in hand.
And to think that I used to accompany my dad to the casinos (some weren't fussy about letting a teenage boy watch) and he would go through hundreds, if not thousands of silver dollars. If I knew then, what I know now, he would have been fighting with me to stop looking at every one he put in the machine. LOL
Wow, thank you. I didn't even check. I went by eye appeal and price. Trying to start a Morgan S collection. Got all the way to 3. Lol
If the top arrow feather is flat it’s the second but if it’s pointed it’s the third. The second is better to have. I’m not sure if they make this distinction on the S mint or not but a 1878-S is a good coin to have.
gotta love those morgans slabbed or raw I just picked up a raw 8TF last week that would fit right in with your 2
