1887/6 Morgan Dollar

I'm not 100% sure about that. If ANACS can't find it already listed I don't know if they will send it to Leroy to be attributed, first, or not. Maybe someone can chime in with the specifics. In the meantime, I'll check the ANACS website to see if it is mentioned.

Picked one up slabbed yesterday. the lower loop from the 6 will be to the right of the base on the 7

 

Take a look at the second 8 in the date. If you squint a little you can almost see a rectangular box around the numeral. Of course, there is no box, it is just an accumulation of circulation effects that can be imagined to look like something. We do that all the time. It's sometimes the root of optical illusions including those where letters are intentionally left out of words, yet we can still read the words because our minds fill in the blanks.

The poster that placed the image of the true 7/6 VAM shows you exactly what your coin needs to match up to. The key is matching it up to a known example and yours unfortunately doesn't have anything unusual on it.
