Thanks
@keilg1 To be honest I didn't know this existed

Saw the photos on eBay and then looked it up. (Dern!

I've always liked this particular VAM and have yet to wrangle one in from the wild.
Nice specimen of it.
Well done.

Thanks soooooooo much everyone! Like I said, it takes me to a happy place

I hope it straight grades

Just sent it to PCGS, had my 4 freebies to use up. I'll send it to JB for a cool sticker when it returns

@jrfaust, relooked at one of my coins and saw the following:

- 87OV30A_cottonboll_clashlines-GRedfeather.jpg (235.02 KiB) Viewed 615 times
Corresponds to the arrow head shafts on the reverse.
Be sure to look to see if your coin show the PUP... wickedly cool, and rather unique, obv PUP for any of the Morgan dollar varieties...
I also noticed for the first time that the hair ribbon clash line can be seen on the reverse (right of the red guide line);

- 87OV30A_rev_head_back_with_ribbon_clashlines_GRedfeather.jpg (120.23 KiB) Viewed 615 times
Holy mud I love this coin more and more the more I look at it!

I sent it off to PCGS for grading, but I will certainly look when it comes back in 6 months
