[QUOTE="cpm9ball, post: 1601128, member: 24633"]Thanks for posting the photos! Die cracks are very common on Morgan dollars because they were struck just once in the press with 130-150 tons of pressure. A crack would have to have substantial metal displacement or be fairly severe to warrant a VAM assignment in and of itself. A good example of one would be the 1888-O "Scarface". The letter "M" that you circled is the designer's initial....George T. Morgan. Chris[/QUOTE]
