All very nice, but are they REAL Morgans if you didn't buy them from the 'real' dealer?

Well, since it didn't come from a "REAL" dealer I would suppose it's a wannabe Morgan!

I really like that 1888. Nice light toning around the edges.

What is a "wannabe Morgan"? The pictures of the coins make them look real enough to me.

Are you asking a question like Frank Zappa's "Is that a real poncho or is that a SEARS poncho?"

Perhaps a question from the Addams Family movie is more apropros. When some Girl Scouts came to Pugsley and Wednesday's lemonade stand one asked "Is your lemonade made from real lemons?" to which Wednesday retorted,."Are your Girl Scout cookies made out of real Girl Scouts?"

The worst that can be said is that Eric's slabbed 1887 toned Morgan has too much chatter to bring an astronomical price. Still, you don't find these at Sears or elsewhere in most shopping malls. The PCGS slab leads me to believe that it is a real Morgan dollar, although the date makes it too early to be one toned by the crematorium preparing George Morgan's ashes.
