I got this coin in an auction last week. It has multiple Die Clashes on both the Obverse and the Reverse, with possible doubling on the Reverse in God We Trust. The Obverse looks like a Bug Bunny, like a 1955 Benji! Check out the pictures.
Well I say its a a well sought after vam. Here's the link as your image isn't clear enough to do the attribution...this date has several vams that are very close you need to have the specimen in hand. https://www.cointalk.com/threads/interesting-1880-p-morgan-die-clash-on-both-sides.398149/
It's a nice clash on both sides. Here is a website that you can visit to help you nail down which particular VAM it is. http://vamworld.com/wiki/1880-P_VAMs
If you follow Jtlee's link with your specimen in hand You should be able to figure out which vam it is. I tried but some your images arent clear enough to do so...plus theres several shared die marriages . Not having the specimen in hand it's only a guessing game. However if you sit down and go step by step you can nail the vam...I rather give you no answer than one guessed or wrong. JTlee is one of the best vammers on CT. And there are others too.
So it's not as easy as it looks. I think it might be a VAM 5, 21, and 43. But I'm not sure if a coin can have multiple VAM's. Certain VAM's have 1 or 2 pictures within that VAM that match and the other pictures are not on the coin. Does this mean that this isn't the VAM if it doesn't match all the pictures for that VAM? As you can see, I'm a little confused. I have 50 Morgans with various Die Clashes. But I'm not sure how to match them to the correct VAM. I sent (2) very nice Morgan's 1888 S and 1890 S. The 88 came back AU55 VAM-36 Polished. the 90 came backAU58 VAM19 Polished. Needles to say, I was disappointed. So I started buying Morgans with tones. I don't want to keep sending in Morgan's to be graded, that come back...Polished! But figuring out the correct VAM isn't easy. Any help to end this confusion would be great.
Attributing the correct VAM to a Morgan or Peace Dollar is not always easy. It's something you start to learn as you do more and more of them. There is a service that will attribute your coin without grading and they are the "Gold Standard" for attribution services. @messydesk offers his attribution services through varslab.com https://www.varslab.com/vamslab.html. He will get it properly attributed and put it in a nice holder to keep the coin safe.
Thanks for the input! Question, what about the reverse of the coin? On the reverse side, it has a HUGE Die Clash that shows the outline of her nose, all the way down past her chin and out the other side of the wing for her neck. Plus, on the other side is a clash of the back of her neck where it meets the head?
That's usually the way clashes work, unless one die is significantly softer than the other one. This particular variety is a "counter-clash", which means that it clashed twice, with the second clash transferring some of the first clash back to the original side. This is why the lips look doubled.
