And that hairline above the date and reaching over to the "U" is a die crack. I haven't check the coin out yet to see if it's list by Snow.
With all the noise on the cheek (and to a lesser extent in the field in front of the face) PLUS the dark spotting I would be surprised if it went...
Yes, the price is on the high side if you look at the posted catalog values. BUT The dealer I buy from selects ones that are in the upper part of...

Wow, Yuma has a coin show. The city is progressing. I was stationed up the road at Yuma Test Station in 1961/62. As a city Yuma wasn't much at...

I'm going and will be there on Friday from about 10 to 1. (I find [or don't] what I want and then scoot.)

Based on the current silver spot ($17.27) a Morgan/Peace dollar has a bullion value of $13.36. Of course a dealer has to make a living so let's...
For me there is a second problem as bad as his fakes. eBay no longer gives you a way to report them.
Make sure you can only send two coins. The Economy category requires a minimum of 5 coins.
What are the characteristics/diagnostics for a 1992D FS-901?
