<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Morgan1878, post: 554140, member: 17869&quot;]My reference (Red Book) gave no details re: metal composition or placement of mint mark..looks like you&#039;ve already gotten some replies on another forum.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As for the 1888-O Morgan, these are fairly common, there is however a much rarer version of this coin with a &quot;double die obverse&quot; where certain features have been struck more than once. So if you&#039;re seeing double looking at the obverse, that might be a good thing. Versions of the common 1888-0 range from $15.00 VG to $18.50 AU. MS grades start at $30.00. The rarer version would be a multiple of at least 2-30 times more depending on condition. These are wholesale prices...</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I&#039;m pretty new to this forum myself..so there are probably a lot more informed answers out there about this Morgan. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>My own personal infatuation with Morgans has to do with the fact that I&#039;m a native son of the golden west so to speak and the Morgan was coined during the time when the West was to a large degree untamed with its attendant list of colorful characters, legends and history.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
