#2 you'll pay too much but will probably be happy otherwise
#3 common offer much less if you want it

It is hard to tell how nice a coin the 1913 Nickel is because of the small pics.
Anaconda's coin is a beaut and you know you will get good quality and service from those guys. You just need to decide if the price is right for you (or you can make them an offer right on eBay).
Good luck!

2. overpriced, fingerprinted, "BattleCreek" yippee lol.
3. cant determine based on the pic.
These 3 auctions point in totally opposite directions. Irrespective of whether or not any of them is worth the money, each of those 3 choices will lead you in a direction further from the other 2.
Of course, it all boils down to whatever you like most about the coins you collect. If I had to choose between the 3 options, I would take Russ up on his offer.
The Anaconda coin is nice, but I don't collect Morgans and I'd be nuts to tell you that the price is ok. I don't collect Buffs either, but that coin is for an advanced intermediate collector of Buffs. On one hand, buying it and holding onto it for awhile might give you an idea about whether or not Buffs are for you. Sometimes, I start to fancy a coin more, the longer I hold onto it.
I knew it would happen.
<< <i>Let's see. Those wheaties are priced at around 30¢ each. I'll sell you a bunch for half that.

Are you serious? email me with details

that coin at a huge discount due to the print and now asking
full retail price. pass.
nickel, pics are way to small. who knows what it will look like in hand.
the wheat pennies for that price is a joke.
keep searching. nothing was a no brainer buy.

Even I'm not that greedy. Most dealers buy batches of wheaties at 2c to 3c and sell them at 3c to 4c. Anything over a nickel per coin for these deals is a ripoff.

He has never shot any of my offers down yet!
If you are interested in a toned morgan, I have some that may suit your wants cheaper than the example you linked. The coin you linked to is a consignment coin and while I must keep my consignor's best interest at heart, I must also keep your and all of our client's best interests at heart as well. Just give me a call and I'll make sure you get a nice toned morgan you will appreciate and enjoy at a price that you will be most pleased with.
I agree that I don't like the dollar because of the print; that should preclude it from the NGC star.
This is one of the problems I have with Battlecreek morgans.
the toner from anaconda is a perfect example of him prob buying
that coin at a huge discount due to the print and now asking
full retail price. pass.
What an incorrect and quite rude statement. I'll point out why.
#1. We didn't buy the coin.
#2. It isn't on consignment at a "huge discount" to us.
#3. The asking price was set between myself and the client based on what he wanted to get for it and my commission % which on this coin will most likely be less than 10% because of listing expenses, paypal fees, ect.
So, the next time you have a blanket idea of how things work, check the facts before rambling off in a public forum useless, biased, and incorrect information.
I do my best to juggle the delicate balance between getting consignors the most for their coins they consign to us while maintaining a fairly priced inventory. When you do that full time to feed your family, come back and tell us all how easy it is.

Those wheats are priced strong, but pre 30's non-cull wheats at 5 cents each sounds like a good deal.

Makes sense to me.

2. Get it in a PCGS holder for 1/2 the price (print + possible AT)
3. Another buy-it-now overpriced stiff.
