[QUOTE="cpm9ball, post: 893444, member: 24633"]I'd pass on both lots. The first lot is selling for 19.3% over spot, and you will probably have so many multiple common dates that only 20 or fewer would be any good for a starter set in the VG/F range. Then, you would be stuck with about 80 or more coins, and silver would have to rise to about $23.75 just for you to break even. The second lot is practically worthless since they are all 1921's, and silver would have to rise to more than $31 just for you to break even. If you are interested in starting a set of Morgans, I'd recommend that you watch for individual certified coins in the XF/AU range if you can't afford MS coins. However, you should be aware that most of the key dates are pretty pricey even in lower grades. [B]Do not buy raw Morgans on eBay![/B] You run too much risk of getting stuck with problem coins.
