<p>[QUOTE=&quot;19Lyds, post: 1319029, member: 15929&quot;]The bottom line price for Morgans and Peace Dollars is the silver content barring any numnismatic quality&#039;s. The point I was trying to make with that comment is that regardless of series or coin, there are always rarities based upon grade.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for Littleton, I emailed them asking about what dates were in this hoard. Their reply is below:<blockquote><p>&quot;Dear Lee, </p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you for taking the time to contact us. </p><p><br /></p><p>Littleton Coin Company is very excited about obtaining the Big Sky Hoard! <b>T</b><b>his enormous hoard will yield over 220,000 coins!</b></p><p><br /></p><p>Our expert coin buyers are still examining the coins, which will be graded and packaged. Until this is completed we do not have any additional information on dates and mint marks. We are excited to offer these incredible Eisenhower Dollars in early January. Until then please visit our website for more details on the Big Sky Hoard.<font size="1"> I have provided a link below.</font></p><p><font size="1"><br /></font></p><p><font size="1"><br /></font></p><p><font size="1"><a href="http://www.littletoncoin.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Display|10001|10001|-1||AboutNav|news-2011-12-05.html?cm_sp=HP-121211-_-HeaderEspot-_-BigSkyHoard" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.littletoncoin.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Display|10001|10001|-1||AboutNav|news-2011-12-05.html?cm_sp=HP-121211-_-HeaderEspot-_-BigSkyHoard" rel="nofollow">http://www.littletoncoin.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Display|10001|10001|-1||AboutNav|news-2011-12-05.html?cm_sp=HP-121211-_-HeaderEspot-_-BigSkyHoard</a></font></p><p><font size="1"><a href="http://www.littletoncoin.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Display|10001|10001|-1||AboutNav|news-2011-12-05.html?cm_sp=HP-121211-_-HeaderEspot-_-BigSkyHoard" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.littletoncoin.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Display|10001|10001|-1||AboutNav|news-2011-12-05.html?cm_sp=HP-121211-_-HeaderEspot-_-BigSkyHoard" rel="nofollow"><br /></a></font></p><p><font size="1"><a href="http://www.littletoncoin.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Display|10001|10001|-1||AboutNav|news-2011-12-05.html?cm_sp=HP-121211-_-HeaderEspot-_-BigSkyHoard" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.littletoncoin.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Display|10001|10001|-1||AboutNav|news-2011-12-05.html?cm_sp=HP-121211-_-HeaderEspot-_-BigSkyHoard" rel="nofollow"><br /></a></font></p></blockquote><p><font size="1">As I said, I expect they&#039;ll hype the heck out of these and end up selling them to some poor soul for $10-$30+ each. Not this poor soul though.</font></p><p><font size="1"><br /></font></p><p><font size="1"></font><font size="2"><font size="1">P.S. I don;t know why they couldn&#039;t just answer the question since each bag is clearly marked as to it&#039;s contents. The photo&#039;s in the Big Sky Hoard link show 1974, 1977, 1978 whhich is pretty good. Philly coins are really tough on MS66 graded IKE&#039;s since they dialed the presses way down. This is the reason Philly coins always have an abundance of &quot;chicken scratches&quot; near the edges which in reality are &quot;annealing marks&quot; which are left over if the strike is weak.</font></font></p><p><font size="2"></font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
