Whoa... the 1886-O... is this a VAM-1A1? Not as clear in VF as it would be in higher grade, but still neat:...
Is the 1885-o a VAM-7? http://ec2-13-58-222-16.us-east-2.compute.amazonaws.com/wiki/1885-O_VAM-7 [ATTACH]
Great color. The notch on the neck and swipe on the cheek put it in the ms62+ to ms64 range for me. The reverse looks a little flat on the eagle's...
Going step by step through the VAM catalog. The 1883-O appears to be one of the o/o varieties that year. Am I id-ing this correctly as a...
What price would you have paid for this group? I mean, they aren't silver rounds, even though well circulated common-date Morgans often trade that...
Here's the 85-o by itself. What grade would you assign it? Bearing in mind that the obverse of New Orleans morgans tend to be very weakly struck....
Actually, all for a bit under $400. And the 27-S is only a $400 coin a significant step or three above mine. Book value (& auction record) in AU58...
Ms65 PL
Am I over or under grading these? I feel reasonably confident on the Morgans, but I'm weaker on grading Peace dollars

I picked up a few silver dollars from a large group at a "We Buy Gold" shop today. Got all these for under $400 (or, roughly the book value on the...
Nope, I meant what I wrote. In the long run, I don't see these being worth what some are paying for them. Novelty fades.
I'd add $10 to the price of silver melt. But, some add more. It's a clever novelty, and, IMO, worth nothing more.
Have you checked the weights of these? Used a magnet? A lot of "sets" are being minted in China right now. All 100% fake, most not even silver.
Ah, gotchya. Thanks - that's what i was thinking too.
I was going to guess ms63. All I can say is that graders typically spend less than 30 seconds on a coin and must have missed the cheek bag marks.
I'm very confused. All 3 pictures in the OP are of the same coin.
Which picture of the circulated coin shows the small D? I'm looking for one to compare against
Here's where they run afoul of any possible defense that they're not intentionally misleading buyers: "Issued a face value of $1 (USD) by the...
