I wish I was a Morgan expert... I am not, but I see nothing that lends me to believe that piece is anything other than genuine.
I have picked up many a cent from the road that looked just like that.
You know….. Now that you mention it…. I tend to put in sorta lowball bids with a local auctioneer that turns up with decent lots of old silver....
Ahhhh.... Plugging those last holes is quite the accomplishment and feels so good! Way to go, Dave!
That is very cool. She will love the thought that went into that..... I have a little leather ladies purse that came from my grandmas when she...
