<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Collector1966, post: 564317, member: 17919&quot;]The problem with Morgans here is not with counterfeit ones, but with overpricing. They seem to be about the most popular American coin over here (Japan), and it would be a lucky find indeed to get a decent one for less than the average US price (since most of the dealers here seem to get theirs from the US). I&#039;ve seen CC dollars in GSA boxes, for example, go for $250 or more.</p><p><br /></p><p>The deal with American gold here is, the $10 Indians and $20 pieces were selling like hotcakes several years ago because there was a gold coin jewelry mania that coincided with Japan&#039;s rising economic power. I was told that office ladies were paying up to 120,000 yen each for a $10 Indian in a bezel, and so Japan was importing lots of those coins from US dealers. But the coin jewelry bubble burst, and the office ladies got tired of their coins and dumped them at a low price. Today, you can get a $10 Indian at a show for around half the price of the bubble peak.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
