You're actually pretty close Ripley. Best metal to invest in ? Scrap iron. Think I'm crazy ? Go look. Scrap iron increased 500% in 2008 - 1...
Greener - Morgans were minted within a certain weight tolerance range. I don't have the book handy to give the precise tolerance, but 1% serves...
Well it's bit more than plating as most folks think of plating (regarding thickness), but yes, they are plated. The coins have a pure copper core...
Yes, they do. Sign in to Heritage, then click on this link and then scroll down until you see the box labeled Price Guide -...
This kind of stuff is what people always seem to remember and it is the way many think of Morgans. But it is important to understand that this...
Good God people - do you really not get it ? If you don't, I feel sorry for the lot of ya.

Give us a link to the auction and we can answer your question.
Ya know, sometimes I wonder if it's even worth it :rolleyes: But what the hey. No one in this thread, at least that I could see, ever...
Possible I suppose, but in all the reading I have done I have never heard of such announcements ever being made. One thing for sure though it's...
Kind of strange Paul since Numismedia gives separate prices for NGC graded coins, and PCGS graded coins. And elijah, for what it is worth, based...
