Description

The listing, Nice 1921 Morgan Dollar has ended.

Nice 1921 Morgan Silver Dollar with no mint marks, which I guess means minted in Philadelphia. Another of the 6 dollars I won from this lot:

http://bitly.com/RxDKbk

Tested as follows:

* http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nbPlsWnoUs - ping test. All six dollars from my eBay lot have the base note on the ping or as I did, just drop them on the floor.

* Green silver acid test. My instructions for this green silver acid say if it is real silver, it is supposed to turn grey or milky grey. I scratched the edge of the coin on my testing stone and treated with the acid and it developed the gray and silky gray expected. This silver acid does not start red brown instead starts greenish grey.

* Red brown silver acid test. My instructions for this reddish silver acid say if it is real silver, it is supposed to turn brown if silver is 90%. I scratched the edge of the coin on my testing stone and treated with the acid and it developed the brownish color as expected.

* http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MiGrtLoJ2dY&feature=related - using 18K gold acid I also tested the coin. I scratched the edge of the coin on an acid stone. I got the the characteristic blue precipitate suggesting its silver.

* Strong magnet test - no attraction.

* Weight test - weighs 26.7 grams. A completely uncirculated coin supposed to be 26.73. but my scale doesn't go to the 100th gram. I'm sure this slightly circulated coin is appropriately very close.

* Plating test - when I scratched the edge of the coin on the acid stone, it showed the same silver color underneath.

Free US shipping. No Canadian or International shipping. (Too expensive.) I 'm not into GINs at the moment. Sorry.

Thanks. Good luck if you bid.

was going to bid until i saw your scratching parts of the coin to test it

Oct 28th, 2012 at 5:33:39 AM PDT by

I scratched the edge of the coin. Generally people don't buy these for the unblemished beauty or at least that's what is alleged. However They are beautiful so I understand what you are saying. Again it's only the edge of the coin.

That's what I say Tony!

I get it. The problem is Morgans and Peace Dollars are counterfeited so much, I felt I needed to. That's why I'm getting out of keeping them. Just too much unrewarding work to keep from getting scammed.

Oct 28th, 2012 at 5:43:05 PM PDT by

Oct 28th, 2012 at 8:43:50 PM PDT by

Oct 29th, 2012 at 5:42:01 AM PDT by

All results point to genuine silver.

Thank You

Oct 29th, 2012 at 7:11:36 AM PDT by

Sure

Oct 29th, 2012 at 7:13:42 AM PDT by

Upon further study, it turns out these coins are worth around the $37 that I paid for them after all.

Oct 29th, 2012 at 7:24:15 AM PDT by

so to test if the coin is real, you scratch the coin and also toss it on the floor to test if it real... thats why you have almost no where near the bids you should have on these.. just advice... stop doing these things to your coins.....

Oct 30th, 2012 at 3:57:29 PM PDT by

Ok, thanks for the advice.

Oct 30th, 2012 at 5:00:37 PM PDT by
