I wonder if it's just a camera trick or is this ungraded Morgan as nice as it looks? Might be a MS65 worth $250. Maybe even better. Sold for $54.98 delivered
There's a possible dent or scratch on the right side of the reverse photo, but I think that might just be in the plastic cover.
It should be submitted to PCGS for grading and encapsulated.

There are scams with the coins on Ebay. I have a coin dealer who has 4 silver dollars that were purchased from Ebay, and they look very real, but don't sound right when dropped. A silver coin has a distinct ring when dropped. Also, the fakes don't quite have the stars and other imprints line up properly.

I'm not really a collector, just trying to buy some coins at relatively good prices. |

Last week I moved the bulk of my portfolio out of the market to safety where I will almost assuredly lose wealth to inflation. The last time I did this during the worst of the Covid pandemic I missed out on about 10% of the gains that occurred in the market. My advisor called me and said that he was moving his portfolio and recommended I do the same. He felt that headwinds and storm clouds were limiting upside growth while the potential for a pretty substantial "correction" are becoming more likely. Personally I have felt this way for a few years but this bull just keeps running.
While I hate to try and time the market and prefer a conservative long term approach I think this time I am going to stay out a while until the fundamentals make more sense. I'm going to use this time to shore up my cash reserves perhaps adding a few silver coins to my stash...

There is a section in the 3.5 trillion bill that indicates taxation of unrealized capital gains. I am going to roll my portfolio over prior to year end to establish a higher base price. Another area wants to raise capital gains taxes.

61% of Americans paid no federal income taxes in 2020, Tax Policy Center sayswww.cnbc.com/2021/08/18/61percent-of-americans-paid-no-federal-income-taxes-in-2020-tax-policy-center-says.htmlKey Points: *More than 100 million U.S. households, or 61% of all taxpayers, paid no federal income taxes last year, according to a report from the Tax Policy Center. *The pandemic and federal stimulus led to a huge spike in the number of Americans who either owed no federal income tax or received tax credits from the government. *The main reasons for the spike — high unemployment, large stimulus checks and generous tax credit programs — will largely expire after 2022. Perhaps maybe that is a small part of the reason we have debt?

Well, his ilk caused it, with their coronavirus transfer payments driving up wages and demotivating the workforce. |

Already going up. The Fed is scared shitless. A 1% increase in rates translates into a $280,000,000,000 increase in Fed government interest payments. We are currently running about 3% below historical averages. Increasing rates will result in financial collapse. |
