<p>[QUOTE=&quot;messydesk, post: 2233479, member: 1765&quot;]The 1921-D Morgan dies seemed more prone to neat die breaks than those of the other mints.&nbsp; Could be they were more brittle as a result of Denver&#039;s hardening process.&nbsp; By contrast, 1921-S dies typically just turned to goo when they wore out, producing the worst detailed coins of the series.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Anyway, 1921-D die breaks were actually what caused VAMWorld to be created.&nbsp; Rob Joyce did a book &quot;Fun with 1921&quot; in 2003 that featured these die breaks, which then caused many more to be discovered as people paid attention to them.&nbsp; Rather than update the book, he created a wiki, VAMWorld, that could more easily be kept up to date.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>For those interested in Rob&#039;s 2003 book, he has made it available as a <a href="http://www.rjrc.com//Fun%20With%201921%20ebook%202003%20reprinted%202015.pdf" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.rjrc.com//Fun%20With%201921%20ebook%202003%20reprinted%202015.pdf" rel="nofollow">PDF download</a>.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
