<p>[QUOTE="NewPenney, post: 781397, member: 21262"]Thanks to all for the added info. New to the hobby. Hope to expand into other areas but Morgans are my interest at this time. First books I bought were Q. David Bowers and Leroy Van Allen and A. George Mills the comprehensive catalogue of Morgans, plus one on grading standards. In the short term I plan on going with slab coins from PCGS and NGC until I am more comfortable and get some experience. I have been told by several people that if I can afford it, try to stick with MS63 or higher. That is where I will put most of my budget but I am sure I will find others that for what ever reason just appeal to me. If I do try to pick up some GSA Morgans I will consider what Raider34 indicated and look for the PCGS or NGC certification. I am not looking to buy a $400 coin for $100, I just want to try and not buy a $100 coin for $400.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
