<p>[QUOTE="LA_Geezer, post: 3603813, member: 89393"]Thanks. As I mentioned earlier, I have several that have this appearance, but as I searched for other examples, I actually found only one Peace Dollar, a 1922, that has this same grossly polished appearance. Most of my other Peace Dollars are just worn from use in circulation. I bought them at bargain prices decades ago, as was the Morgan above. A few of those have been cleaned, too, so I have some replacing to do. I have just begun collecting the Morgans in earnest, and have decided to take the tortoise's approach, showing a lot more deliberation and spending more for each one I buy. I still prefer raw to slabbed coins despite several admonishments here, and have averaged a little over $100 each for the five I have bought since the beginning of the year. I may choose to opt for certified, slabbed Morgans on the ones that are not so common.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
