I hate it. besides the bezel, it looks like it was spray painted "silver" at one time.
if it's even real, it's junk silver.
spend a few dollars more and buy a nice coin instead.

Agreed. I would not buy it for anything over scrap. This is a common date and would be easily obtainable in very nice condition for just a few dollars more.

Grab the nub at the top of the bezel and unscrew it. Use a pair of pliers if necessary.

Agreed. I've done before on more than one occasion.

Give it to a Canadian jeweller and get them to make a ring from it.

Thank you on the advice on how to unscrew those bezels. The last one I bought was a pain and I couldn't get it off even with plyers. I just gave it away. I agree too on the look. I am not an expert but saw all the lines and weird colors on it. It is kind of a cheap price for a Morgan ($25) but still over melt. I think I'll pass. On the ring, that's a helpful idea but it's not my taste. I cringe when I see coins turned into jewelry. To each their own though.
