where can i buy Morgans??

i have always wanted to find a morgan but since im on a budget is there a place where i can find one at a low price (without the risk of it being fake). i know this seems highly unlikely but if you know of a store/website please let me know. i know these are rare coins but i still hope.

thanks, when i come across some big money i might do that. is there a place where i can get one for less then $100

 

Well, there is a commercial that I saw, and it is 19.95 per morgan which is really cheap! You'll have to do a search for them, because I forgot the name of the company.

 

Try going to a coin show and looking around there. I picked up a 1882-S and and 1883 graded MS-62 for about $75 for the pair. Some of the common dates can be had either raw or graded for not too much money......unlike some of the Carson City Morgans..............

 

What are you talking about? There are some Chinese sellers on ebay that sell some nice CC Morgans pretty cheap?

Phoenix

 

please try to remeber because that is just my price range.

 

Hey! We don't need no stinkin' counterfits.......

 

whats going on???

 

walk into any coin shop in your area and ask to see his circulated common date Morgans and he will have a box/bin/coffee can for you to pick through with a price in the $15-$25 range depending on if the coins are sliders or heavily circulated.

Every dealer has a bin like that, so just ask.

 

I wouldn't recommend these guys as your source for buying coins (way overpriced), but 24.95 for an XF Morgan isn't too bad.

This is simply not true. There are literally hundreds of millions of common date Morgan dollars around. In circulated grades they trade for a very slight premium over their silver melt value. They are as common as a coin can be.

 

a coin shop in my area. ok, i would have to drive at least an hour or more to find a coin shop. 15-20 is so my price range. thanks.

 

If it is an hour's drive I'd call before I made the trip just to be sure. But I'd be stunned if he said he didn't have any Morgans in the under $25 range.

 

i didn't know that. i thought it would be very rare to find one in circulation.

 

ok thanks.

 

It is fairly uncommon for any large sized dollar coin to be found in circulation, but my sister found a few while working at a bank a couple years ago. I wouldn't count on being able to find one in circulation, but a dealer will sell you a circulated coin for just over its melt value.

 

oh, ok, thanks.

 

Finding a circulated Morgan dollar and finding a Morgan dollar in circulation are two entirely different things.

Morgan dollars were not popular (except in the West) but they did circulate. Today you can buy those Morgans that circulated decades ago.

When their silver content exceeded their face value they became next to impossible to find in circulation (but, as with Cave Troll's example, it does happen on RARE occasions). So it is extremely unlikely you will ever find a Morgan dollar in circulation.
