A racking dilema..HELP!......

To you the reader, this may seem long winded to some; however, please bear with me.
I started on a quest to achieve all the Morgan dollars including types and varieties recognized by PCGS. However, I've find myself, most recently, opening my blue boxes (X 5), all Morgans, and peering at the beauty of my CCs and having NO REAL INTEREST IN THE OTHERS. So, I'm beginning to ask myself, should I sell off the 60 or so that mean absolutely nothing to me; wherein, I can acquire the higher graded CCs and move on to collect various denominations of U.S. coinage in at least MS grade. Moreover, I'd like to hold on to the overdates & over MMs of this Morgan collection because they should increase monitarily to a greater degree through time than the regular dates. Furthermore, I began this quest with my munchkins in mind. You know, the legacy thing! I become very indecisive in matters regarding coin COLLECTING for my enjoyment, and again, leaving something behind for me munchkins when I kick the bucket.
Any help/feedback with TODAYS racking dilema is appreciated....

What is money, in reality, but dirty pieces of paper and metal upon which privilege is stamped?

I see nothing wrong with that.

Seriously, it sounds like you have enough Morgans to cherrypick the best ones and make a set of CCs and another of coins that are interesting to you.

I am thinking of doing exactly the same thing. I have over 50 morgans right now but there are several dates/mm's that I have more than one of. I will be selling the extras as soon as my new camera is delivered and I can get some good pics of them. Maybe I will be able to raise enough money to buy one of the key CC's that I need.

True to a degree. Even if you wanted to, a matched set is difficult because some of the coins are of extremely limited availability. Course if you have the $$$ then its a somewhat easier undertaking. Also if you aren't picky it is a tad easier too. Finding nice coins in an area where selection is extremely limited is a real challenge tho. The nice thing about Morgans is that it IS possible to complete a set even for a collector of modest means. Personally I see nothing wrong with having a set where the commons are MS65/66 and nice AU's of some of the tougher dates.
