I think I've seen you post about coins several times before. I just have a question.

Can you recommend any online sources so that I can get an idea about what all I have and what maybe worth some money (not looking to make a ton, just want an idea)? Have a bunch of different coins and some paper money, both US and foreign.

Are you local if so I can look

Foreign money is a nightmare my book is over a1000 pages I think

Us money books are about 40 or so pages

I can help you just text me and I can have you sendnpics or tell me what you have

The odds of having that money coin is very hard to have but there is always a chance It would actually take me about 10 min to go thru 200 morgans if that

Thank you for the response.

Live in Killeen, so not local.

I'll get a general list of what I have, and at least email you.

That works also. Because I can look thru the list and say send me pics of this coin and if it grades high enough can let you know

You need a list anyways so you know what you got unless its just a boatload that is alittle bit harder

There are 484 morgans Just morgans and 10or so grades for morgans

So you have to know basically about 5,000 numbers because each grade can change the value of a coin

Edit Now multiply that by all the other coins with grades

And when I mean 484. P. D. S. CC

You sound like a dealer or trader.

The $142 price you reference is "uncirculated." You are claiming the 1890S you posted a pic of, as Uncirculated?!

Maybe AU, but the tarnish I can see in the pic would lead to be scrutinize the actual coin.

Neither.

I am selling Morgans for the son who dad taught me about coins

Not my coins

He puts a price and I try to sell

I am selling some but not my morgans I only by graded now because grading is so arbitrary (if that is the right word)

I have bought coins supposedly in ms63 price and came back from pcgs au55 I can grade up to ms60 now but after that I cannot tell the difference

You can see the wrinkles on the ankles, breast feathers, the claws on his feet and even the tail feathers but

You maybe right he is at 125.00 and book is 142.00 and au is 98.00 So he is kinda right between but without PCGS certification who knows

Maddiedou is an honest fella. He has helped me sell some coins before and I had no complaints. Cast your stones elsewhere. If you don't like the prices, move along please.

Thanks. Angler

I dont think he was questioning my honesty just the grading of the coin

I could take 1coin and put before 15-20 coin experts and only 2 would agree with each other on the grading and the other 13 or so would argue they were right about their grading

The only person who is correct and even then sometimes get push back is PCGS or NGC

It is a rough hobby to be in which is why I am trying to sell some now because kids could care less about coins ezcept for my graded ones

Edit. But again these are not my coins

What I can add: I've been collecting for 51 years and have owned Morgan's every one of those years….but I am not a Morgan specialist.

Tarnish (patina) on a coin is generally going to enhance its value, not its grade. What you generally look at to determine whether a Morgan is uncirculated are the strands of hair above the face on the obverse and the feathers on the breast on the reverse. Once you have determined it is uncirculated, it's grade then will be between mint state 60 and mint state 67. That is determined by the quality of the strike (once again feathers and hair strands) and the amount of marks on the coin caused by friction that occurred within the mint sewn bag of 1,000 coins that were originally distributed to the bank.

And having interacted with Maddie for many years on these forums related to coins and bullion, he has always provided honest and accurate advice.
