Silver Dollars & Trade Dollars of the United States - A Complete Encyclopedia

The October 1957 issue of The Numismatist carried an advertisement by Dan's (Dan.Morafka), San Francisco, listing the following Uncirculated rolls (20 coins) of Morgan dollars. Again, such a listing gives an excellent indication of Morgan dollar vari-eties available in roll and bag quantities at the time.

The market for quantities of Morgan dollars was hot, and nearly a dozen different dealers made these the focus of their business. Investors were now a major force in the market, and dealers enjoyed selling 20 coins at a time,or a thousand, to buyers who had lots of money and who were usually hot very fussy about quality. Of course, at the time, collectors weren't very fussy either.
