    I met a new dealer today, after coming back from Trade Days at Fredericksburg, I went to, well I am pretty sure it was called "Lone Star Coins" and had about 5 or 6 dealers inside, that were all older gentleman, some in their 60's some in their 80's
    Anywho, the signficance, of all of this, is that they had pretty good deals, and I snatched up some coins to my liking! :)

    $50 for the 1904 O NGC MS64
    $50 for the 1881 S NGC MS64

    And I paid $45 for the 1885 O NGC MS63 on ebay earlier on, and just got it in today

    I will go to this shop from now on. I made friends, with two of the guys, and told them what I collected and what I had.
    They asked me at first, "Is this for your father" and I said nope, for me :)
    And we talked for about 30 minutes, and after that he gave me a price cut, he was going to charge $60 for both :)

    The MS63 1885 O, is a clean one for a MS63, and it shows, comparing to others that I own, and both MS64's that I purchased kick those MS63's to the curb! :D
    Thanks JefLinc :)

    The 1904-O looks nice. Last year of the New Orleans mint too. Sweet deal!

    Not the best strike in the world, but I will take it. It is a nice morgan, and I thank you for the compliment :)

    I can barely carry this NGC storage box, from the shelf, to the desk, and that is like a 5 foot walk.. LOL
    Thanks Chief :)

    Just depends, you are not gonna steal my morgans are you? :D
    Just joking my friend...
    Yes, that is in San Antonio, it is called Lone Star Coins.
    I have not checked out many other shops, the other two I have are a tad overpriced! But these guys are great, and very friendly :)
    They have many many coins, I'm guessing anything a regular coin shop would have, tons of morgans and peace dollars, graded, and some just thrown in a bucket ready to be sorted through, amazing variety of large cents, and some nice graded gold pieces as well.
    I'd say worth the trip, as long as you buy something! :)
