Has anyone here received the Carson City Morgan Collection letter yet? They want about $250.00 for the complete Tribute Proof collection. You get all 13 years of the CC Morgan plus a 1900 "O" over "CC" Morgan. Not sure if it is a good investment....I always think that NCM is high for what they are asking,..thoughts?
They are useless base metal clad in approximately 4 cents worth of silver apiece. There is nothing related to them which could be considered an "investment."
Take that letter and burn it. Take any other mailings you get from them and burn them unopened. Get off their email list. If they call you, tell them never to call again. Did I miss anything?
From their website... About 2% of all Morgans were minted at Carson City. Now consider the many millions of Morgans lost to wartime meltdowns and silver profiteers. It’s no wonder that the value of any surviving Morgans, and especially those minted at Carson City, has increased dramatically. In fact, the rarest ones have sold for over $881,000!

It’s a complete date set of U.S. Gov’t “CC” Morgan Silver Dollars recreated as privately minted non-monetary tribute proofs, each clad in 71 mg .999 Pure Silver Clad tribute proofs, each with the magic “CC” mint mark clearly visible on the reverse.

Doesn't help that the sentence highlighted in red is in gibberish English.
