Thanks, John. This will be interesting for everyone.

That would mean that those of us who purchase coins from Ebay sellers and submit payment through PayPal would be paying by Credit card or debit card. I would think credit card as opposed to debit. Or, will Ebay set up their own PayPal like program?

Thanks for you comments Ron, Wayne, and John.

Thank you all for getting back to me on this issue.

I just received a Morgan that has been certified as an 1881-O VAM-1H. But, it could be a VAM-40 instead. This specimen has Obverse beveled fields, a spiked 8, as well as the inner wing gouges seen on 1H. In addition, however, this specimen has doubling to the right inside ear wall and at the bottom ...

Congratulations, Lee. Keep them coming.

Congratulations. I bet you had to let all the cattle go as well.

Very nice looking Morgan.

You definitely caught that feature. Sometimes it takes quite a few shots to capture what you want people to see.

This is a photo of my VAM-17C. To view a clearer image, click on link provided below:

I would think worn away rather than polished away. Later mintage seems right to me.

I see the remains of the gouge on a VAM-17 that I acquired. A much cleaner high definition copy of the above image can be viewed at the link provided below:

Because Mr. Roberts' response to my question about "state" vs. "stage" made it so much easier for me to understand the differences between the two terms, I stashed away his reply in a special spot in my computer so that it would always be available fo...

Thanks, collectin'. I wish there were more 7B photos available for viewing.

I’m thinking a Morgan I just acquired is either a 7B or 7C. Based on how I read and view the photos presented in the 7 and 7A Pages, neither one of those varieties contain upper or lower tail feather gouges. I also took the 7D out of the running because my Morgan doesn’t contain the additional gouge...

Sandlor has great eyes for Vams, Bert. He also notices those deer in your woods; but, they have nothing to fear from Sandlor. He can chase all he wants, but he'd never catch up to them.

That is one fine looking coin, Bert. I will have to keep an eye out for that Variety.

Thank you all for your input. I do appreciate it.

1880-P VAM 50A:

There's slight doubling of the letters STATES and more noticeable doubling of the letters in IGWT. Is this hub doubling or strike doubling?
