[QUOTE="CRudolph, post: 947405, member: 24890"]Hello all! I was examining a 1922-S Peace Dollar that I purchased about two months ago. I am pretty certain that the Olive Branch is detached from the eagle's talon, however I noticed and perhaps imagined a few other things about this coin and wanted to ask if anyone has heard of such an animal. 1. I have a fine die crack that runs along the circumference of the coin, starting underneath and from the R in Liberty to the just above the final T in Trust. 2. Their is doubling of the R, T, & Y in Liberty 3. It appears that their is some doubling (maybe tripling) in the larger rays of the Tiara between the B and E of Liberty 4. A small die crack on the lowermost group of three olive leaves on the reverse I am pretty sure that this is an early die state used for trial runs given the detached Olive branch and with Morgan's tinkering with the Francesci's design to make the coin possible who knows what happened at the mint. I could not find anything in my copy of the Cherry Pickers Guide of the Whitman Guide to Peace Dollars. If anyone who has a more extensive library could help me out, it would be appreciated. Sorry, I am unable to post any photos at this time. Thanks![/QUOTE]
