<p>[QUOTE="zenarrrow, post: 1078608, member: 28768"]I guess I am a bit confused here. Do you guys wish for me to list all my morgans year and mint ? I will try and give it a start, maybe over a few posts though. Thank you all for the advice, like you said I will get the morgans next to my pc and list them. </p><p><br /></p><p>Also, I guess I should thank Grandpa for having the foresight of doing this. </p><p><br /></p><p> Mainly it was the quarters knowing when they switched the property of the quarters that silver was going to be weeded out. To be able to foresee this and put this aside is truly amazing. Most of his machines were quarter machines and then I am guessing were half dollars, same thing to put them aside. With the Morgans I am betting mainly it was a collection, had to be. As these are at a much lower number then the halfs and quarters. Also, unless he had dollar slot machines somewhere I am not sure of any other dollar machines that people would casually use. Plus they are quite a bit older than any of the other coins.</p><p><br /></p><p> I bet their are plenty of older people who say, " how could I have not known to do this ?" Having fortunes in their hands and spending it on cigarettes or pinball machines, whilst the new cheaper coins are starting to dominate their change pocket. So to have someone who actually have done this is again amazing.</p><p><br /></p><p>So with that being said I will get a list of the $'s up. and try and upload some photo's. We knew of the coins stashed away, he had told us where. But with everything else going on a month has passed since he passed. Yesterday we finally pulled them out, quite laboring to dig them out. Thats when I thought I better find out what these might be worth, hence I joined this group. Honestly the thought of getting them out again hurts my back, hehe. But I will plan to do it a gain shortly, if only to like someone said to have "Rock Star status" for a day or two.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
