morgon dollar story

GoldCoinLover

Today I was at a Ace hardware store. They were selling chocolate covered peanuts inside a large cane, 2 of them for 1 buck. I always carry my 1880 morgon silver dollar with me most places I go as a "good luck" charm. I keep it in one pocket where there are no things that can scratch it. I jokingly went up to the counter and she rang it up . She said "one dollar please". so I pulled out my hefty silver morgon dollar and handed it to her. She was in disbelief. I said, "Its a dollar." and told her that it was a real US dollar from the year 1880 known as a silver morgon dollar. She thought it was so cool

She told one of the employees working there to come look at he. She showed it to him and he said "It looks like a great pogg slammer".

Then I handed her the the current US dollar bill, took my morgon back said thanks to her and left. They both loved it and thought it was really cool. She said she thought it was a canadian dollar, but I assured it that it was a real US dollar

(Also, how do I make that sign that says "Cool" and flips over? I can't find it in the box that says "Selection Emotion")

I like doing the same with my pocket piece, an 1898-S Morgan.

I'll show it to people to educate them or just get them talking coins. I showed it to a clerk at a gas station and found out she had a couple of bust halves and an 1892-CC Morgan she wanted to sell. Bought all three.
