No, they aren&#039;t silver. They&#039;re base metal with a very poor-quality silver plating.</p><p>2. No, they aren&#039;t Morgans. They&#039;re copies. You know, the things that you and I -- the &quot;little people&quot; -- aren&#039;t allowed to list on eBay any more.</p><p>3. I have a set of these that came with a lot of <i>actual</i> coins. They look incredibly crummy. They really have to be seen to be believed.</p><p>4. Despite all this, there were at least two bidders who thought the lot was worth more than $400, and several more who bid well above the $20 or so that these when for when it was legal to list them on eBay.</p><p><br /></p><p>Despite the dreck they sell, <b>aboncom</b> maintains a 99% positive feedback score. They&#039;re averaging around 8 negatives and 5 neutrals per month, but close to 900 positives. I suppose this does prove one thing: there sure are a lot of happy fools shopping on eBay.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
