I want to give my Morgan Dollars an aged look. Have dark areas on the circumference and some around the face but retain the shine on the high areas.

leave it open by the laundry room for about two or three weeks, the fumes will tarnish tha silver, then buff or rub with a plain cloth.
leave them alone, that will make them less valuable, and that is fact!!
Just leave your coins as they are. Let them tone naturally. Artificial toning can actually make your coins less desirable, and considered as altering your coins(yes, ppl can tell those fake aging!!) DOn’t clean them either. Well circulated coins should have that aged look if they haven’t been cleaned or dipped. But, if you still insist on toning your coins artificially, then pls go through your Morgans once again and make sure you don’t destroy any scarce dates.
