[QUOTE="Collecting Nut, post: 8294897, member: 74863"]I was looking at this coin yesterday and saw a number of things I had somehow missed in the last 30 or so years. I guess I was busy and didn’t take the time to look at them properly like I do now that I’m retired. Being retired has its advantages, one of them being I do what I want, when I want for as long as I want. LOL A PCGS graded 1886 Morgan Dollar as a MS-63. It was slabbed long ago as I bought it this way for just under $30.00. You can’t do that in today’s market. It should also grade higher but it will stay in this slab for now. [ATTACH=full]1466667[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1466668[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1466669[/ATTACH] I can’t find any info on this clash. It comes off the N on the reverse. [ATTACH=full]1466670[/ATTACH] This clash was easy to find, just look to the left of the top leaves in the wreath. [ATTACH=full]1466671[/ATTACH] A die crack from the neck through the first 3 digits in the date. [ATTACH=full]1466672[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1466673[/ATTACH] Another die crack starting at the rim to the right of M, going through the star and continuing across the field ending in the hair curls above the last star. [ATTACH=full]1466674[/ATTACH] Another die crack on the obverse from the lower right of the second U in PLURIBUS and ending at the top of Liberty’s cap. [ATTACH=full]1466675[/ATTACH] A great looking coin with a number of minor die issues (clashes and cracks) that I can’t imagine how I missed them all these years.[/QUOTE]
