<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jtlee321, post: 2121360, member: 73983&quot;]I&#039;m curious as to what your opinions are.&nbsp; I&#039;m thinking MS-62 maybe MS-63.&nbsp; I just picked her up today from a bullion dealer.&nbsp; I have a buyer lined up already, so it&#039;s just a flip.&nbsp; Funny thing is the buyer is a pawn shop of all places.&nbsp; I walked into this pawn shop today and noticed he had some GSA&#039;s, all common CC&#039;s.&nbsp; He had the &#039;83 and &#039;84 marked at $250.00 and crazily enough the &#039;82 marked at $550.00!!&nbsp; My curiosity was peeked.&nbsp; I told him I had a couple of those &#039;82&#039;s at home and might be interested in selling one.&nbsp; I asked what he would be paying for one.&nbsp; So he popped out a Red Book and started telling me that &quot;these Morgan Dollars are all uncirculated and probably grade MS-65 or higher&quot;.&nbsp; I played dumb and said, really?&nbsp; He said &quot;yes, and in that grade and higher they book at $600.00 and more&quot;.&nbsp; So I asked him if I brought one of mine in what would he pay for it.&nbsp; He replied &quot;$350.00, I need to make a little money on them&quot;. I knew in the back of my head exactly where I could source one for just under $200.00.&nbsp; So I told him I&#039;ll run home real quick and bring it in.&nbsp; I asked if his offer would be good, he replied yes.&nbsp; So I went and paid a visit to the guy who had an &#039;82, &#039;83 and &#039;84.&nbsp; I worked a deal with him and drove the Morgan over to her new home.&nbsp; I&#039;ve never come across a pawn shop that tries to buy and sell coins based on Red Book prices.&nbsp; I used to go in all the time to buy stuff, then suddenly their prices seemed to really sky rocket, now I know why.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry this went off my original subject.&nbsp; I had already been contemplating buying this Morgan and sending it in to be graded.&nbsp; But now I won&#039;t have to.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]402149[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]402150[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
