I was able to get a Whitman Morgen Dollar folder.(1878-1921) Opinions are appreciated

Post by johnhenry9009 » Sat Jul 29, 2023 2:57 am

I was able to borrow an old Whitman Morgen Dollar folder from a friend so I could give them a VAM #. If you see that I misattributed a VAM please let me know and I can get some closer photos of the places of interest. :D

Do you get to keep them if you get all the numbers right????? ,,,,, WOW that sounds like a better treasure hunt than "The Fenn" if you do !!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
All kidding aside there are a couple really cool coins in that Old folder .....
And please write 1884-P 2A on the last title shown :D

Bingo, my good sir you are right on the money. :D I do apologize for not writing the VAM # to start with I just felt like making a small Exciting challenge(I'll stop with the Es :lol: ). Unfortunately I can not keep the ones that I Vam as he is very protective of his collection but he does not care about the VAM so I long as I replace the morgen dollars I take with ones of the same date and mint mark he is fine with me replacing some. Once I am done with this book I will move on to his vol. 2 of the book which I believe goes from 1887-1896, and after that he has a full peace doll. book I will need to look though.
