<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1260026, member: 112&quot;]Part of what you are saying is true, but part is not. Quoted from VAM World - </p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;.....Field has more curvature than any other Morgan dollar and is especially concave near rim. &quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;....... Its beautiful concave reverse is unique in the series. &quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>There was no &quot;matching tool&quot;. If there was, this coin would not have been possible. Coin dies were polished on flat zinc plates. And the basining of the Morgans had nothing to do with them having mirror fields. They were basined slightly, and near the rims, so that the metal would flow better when they were struck. Many coins are basined, not just Morgans. </p><p><br /></p><p>And the reason Peace doillars do not have mirror fields is because they were not designed to have mirror fields. Morgans were.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
