So, earlier today my neighbor (who is normally drunk) comes and knocks at our door. He hands my dad a coin and says it is a thanks for Christmas (I guess we did something). My dad is reluctant to take it, but is basically forced to. Our neighbor then holds out a few more and says he'll give them to us for $30. My dad declines saying we have no money for it, and our neighbor is dismissed. Once my dad closes the door, he looks at the coin. Instantly he recognizes it as a Morgan and tells me to check how much it is worth (I of course have no idea how to do this). We find various prices which obviously outweigh the $30, so my dad says me and my brother should go get the other four for the $30. We do that, and end up with four more... After some researching, I have found various prices... But they mean basically nothing as I know nothing about coins... If someone would like to help "grade" them, that would be great. Specifically, I want to know how much I can get for them. Pictures were uploaded to imageshack, sorry if that is a huge inconvenience. 1883 http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/9780/1004596x.jpg http://img706.imageshack.us/img706/3487/1004597.jpg 1884 http://img710.imageshack.us/img710/7042/1004594.jpg http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/8357/1004595e.jpg 1886 http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/263/1004598x.jpg http://img15.imageshack.us/img15/2200/1004599.jpg 1893 http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/8609/1004592d.jpg http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/8022/1004593g.jpg 1896 http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/1221/1004600z.jpg http://img197.imageshack.us/img197/7056/1004601f.jpg Thanks. : ) Better be worth than $30...
Welcome...Morgan dollars just in silver are about 14-15 bucks..You paid 30 total for all them? Nice..The 1893 is the money coin. They only made 378,000 of them. Assuming its real that one probably worth about $150. Nice.
I agree with Flyers. The '83, '84, '86 and '96 are worth around $14. The 1893, is a better date, it looks like a high VF to me, I would say it's worth around $200.
