Ben: Agreed, the die cracks don't match the O-113, apparently they should add an O-114a, which designates the die state. Nice find, and tough...
Ben: the grey sheet (actually the Coin Dealer Newsletter) gives prices for bid and ask on coins. There is the weekly, for Morgan dollars and...
Definately strike doubling, look at the flat shelf like appearance to the 3 and the D. Besides, the D was added after the die was preped. So,...
Ag: The 'image #3: extra metal, I believe is either a die scratch or the start of a die crack. The others, not likely to be a DD, espeically...
