Last time I checked, when Silver was around $11.50 an ounce, I could buy junk 90% for 10x face. Bags of gold? Don't see many people selling...
Gun to my head? Morgans. Given the choice? Neither. Well, I suppose the Morgans, the vast majority could be easily upgraded and a handful are...

I have some nice Peace Dollars Paul, just they are in their original bank rolls..... Can we do SLQs? :D
Whatcha doing buying raw coins on eBay?
