[QUOTE="messydesk, post: 2528337, member: 1765"]If you like Morgan Dollars, pick up the Guide Book of Morgan Silver Dollars. Lots of good information in there. Not an expensive book. It's hard to tell you what grade to buy without knowing your budget, although a general rule of thumb is that you shouldn't by coins in a grade that is priced nearly the same as the next grade higher. For CC Morgans, you'll probably want to buy them in the original GSA holders from the early 1970s. Many of these are already graded by NGC with a strap around the case. They trade quite frequently, and you can search prices realized (PCGS and Heritage mentioned earlier) for the going rate. If you don't have an account with Heritage, get one.
