I have an 1883 Morgan, New Orleans ("O") mint, in uncirculated condition that I bought on eBay last year for $43 + $2.00 shipping & handling.

I also have an 1884 O Morgan (uncirculated condition) that I bought on eBay for $46 + $2.50 S&H.

On the other hand, I bought an 1883 Morgan in VF condition for $34 + $0 S&H, so.....

I think, based on eBay auctions, that "O" minted coins are a little more collectible and therefore a little higher priced.

So I believe you did just fine on the Morgan. You definitely did not get hosed on it.

I don't know about the other coins you referenced.

Well, thats good! I thought based on seeing some pricing from APMEX that I did not get hosed completely but I just was not sure.

Do you happen to collect currencies or are you solely coins?

Also, to the group, what coins/currencies that are in circulation now do you being worth anything? For example, the gold presidential dollars?

New Orleans minted Morgan's can typically have a higher price tag due to the strikes on the Morgans weren't very good and very few came out of New Orleans with good strikes compared to those minted in San Francisco, Philadelphia, Denver and Carson city. But at the same time, New Orleans minted Morgan's cost less on average than those from other mints because of the high volume of Morgan's that were minted in New Orleans.
