I forgot I put the few pictures I took on this laptop..

There's a little metal flowing up between the denticles.the break does not go past the dot ,but the crack does ..hard to see that stuff on eBay pictures.Ill have to look at the precud tonight. Thank you

Gonna need a judgement call as I'm feeling more H-2 , than H-1 , official listing does say crack through dot , but I think it would be tons better if there was nothing past the Dot ... The beard is still pretty cool . I can already see this is gonna be a thing for me . Next time look for the H-0 may...

Oh man I need to show you my poor ole 79 CC , or even better my 80 cc , Ill have to take some pictures of them next weekend , see if either one are Vam-able... the 80 has a little scratch on it , seems like I've had it for 20 + years , kicking around in a box with a bunch of pennies ....

Just to repeat from my initial post in this thread, all of my photos are the 2nd S in STATES on a 1921-P.

That's my bad I called it a MM by accident,, sorry about that ....

@demetri this is one year off from your coin , one year off but same mint . does your coin look like this ?http://ec2-13-58-222-16.us-east-2.compu ... 0-S_VAM-88

So I have actually learned something important while looking through the VW pages . They call the kind if pimple like pitting on your 83-O porosity , Which is exactly what I believe it would look like if it was in the die .. not rust >>>> I would have to show you a bad weld made by long arcing 7018 ...

So i was on the 82-O v 4 page and it shows a picture of a reverse that looks much like your 83-O eagle and someone dubbed your pitting as" Freckles "

DHalladay I will guarantee you I will concede and fold like a cheap card table :lol: I just keep seeing these strange spider cracks on a few Morgan Dollars that the only way my brain comprehends them, is to think of them much like flint knaps on a arrowhead . stuff that cracks but does not flake . ...

you have to find letter transfer for the clash to count, very nice coin BTW

That's a pretty nice gift Bert !

and JB knows way more than me so he is probably right . but I would make sure with pictures, cause i like looking at clouds sometimes

this just reminds me of Geseas anomaly on his 78 . it looks like it extends up on to the S where it meets it on the lower right .. this is why i want to get Ziess to build a coin scope version, with big optics and no stacking required... Picture borrowed From Dennis ,, it's pariodilla , its a treasu...

I wanna guess its a crack in the plancet , knowing i could be wrong ... improper annealed silver . maybe ?????

Welcome to the forum ! I wont be any help as I struggle with the lowballs and attribution . but someone will know . Good luck ! It does look like it has the spikes though.

Excellent! Looks nice. Sticking with the template makes it easier to view them all quickly. Thanks for doing this. Hoping you have a graphics tablet of some sort.

No tablet. Just Photoshop, a mouse, and a 27" monitor.

labor of love Mr, D ! Solid work Sir!

What causes that ?, I saw they were raised . seems like you can see that feature on several samples under the right lighting .It looks like slag in bedded in the surface , not so much rusty dies , but some byproduct of extreme heat maybe ????..

please don't do this to a Morgan Dollarhttps://youtube.com/watch?v=3FSR80hEyrk ... IECMiOmarE

No the alter surface thing is a coin cleaning type deception, the same category as whizzed sort of , I can't remember what it is called though...

Thank you , I should have been more studious the first time , This PCGS attribution of EDS on everything {1 -7} Threw me because included in the VW pages on a couple of the early stages are TWO stabbed EDS mystery stage coins in holders and the EDS thing threw me a little bit the first time . And i ...
