Hello everyone, I was at a coin show today and bought a couple 1921 Morgans. I brought it home and noticed a large die crack and found it on VAMWorld as VAM-1U. I was hoping that someone could point me in the right direction I finding the value of this coin. I'm uploading images of this coin, though you can't make out the crack. Thanks, TheFlask
It's a really interesting VAM because of the sheer size of the gouge, but not one which would carry a premium except slabbed in a grade which would attract those who collect varieties at the Condition Census level. You'd probably need it in MS65 to contemplate a premium even if it isn't known in that grade yet, simply because those in the know realise how small a percentage of the existing population has actually been searched for varieties. On the short list of VAMs to own if/when the popularity of collecting them increases, since it's a List coin, though. And knowing the VAM as I do, I can see the telltale for it inside the E even in these pics.
