There's a raging snowstorm outside today. I thought I would start a thread on new Morgan purchases. Morgan collectors are always making new purchases.
I purchased two new Morgans recently.
One is on the way but I have one here to show.

How can you tell when a rattler is a low number?

This is my newest one:
New additions, and currently the only graded Morgans in my collection. The 1900 O is in my 20th century type set, and the 1921 was an impulse buy.

This dealer had six different years to choose from and all the same grade. This one looked the best so I brought her home.
I just got this today. I won't be the guy battling it out with the toning aficionados. I have quite a few of these now. I have always contemplated a date set. I'll probably hang out in the 63-64 range and see how far I can get with that plan.
