mint mark well, i am adding cc and o mint mark together with s as my most wanted mint mark. w mint mark is o.k. p and d are quite boring.
I found about 35 new Buffalos out of a 1000 coin bag with a CUD in the "D" that turned it into a "B". If I can figure out how to post a pic I will. I love errors so I'll say "B"
CC, O, W, S, P&D are the same.... but since i doubt i will ever own any CC's or O's then I will say that for the most part W's and S's are what i get excited about the most.
Actually, I've never been, but will go someday. Maybe if I bring a metal detector I can turn up some free samples.
Went to the Frisco mint twice as a kid-- right when I began collecting, too! I still pull anything from change with an S. Pennies (ok ok cents) were my first obsession, and to this day my 08s and 31s are faves.
Have several CC Morgans which I picked up in the 1960's, at a bank, for $1 each. Also picked up a few New Orleans Morgans the same way. With the history being made at N.O. right now, I think that's pretty interesting. So, CC, NO, and Denver.
Hey Gary I will give you $10 for one of those old bank handled CC Morgans so you can say you made 10 times the money? I have always liked the CC mint mark, followed by S and then O. I prefer D on my modern coins as the coins (circulation) from Philly always seem to be poor quality.
Gee, $10. That would be 10 times what I paid. Seems like a good deal. Well, maybe not. Can you imagine what I would have if I knew then what I know now! BU Morgans for face value. BU $5 gold pieces for $19.95 each. I can remember the bank teller telling me that there were thousands of the silver dollars in the vault, and I was welcome to them all. I could afford only one or two each month, unfortunately. One day soon I'm going to dig them out and see exactly what I have, saved from those "old days." Hopefully I'll be pleasantly surprised.
