Message:: [QUOTE="Davedawg77, post: 1069634, member: 28444"]This is an 1899-O Morgan that is graded MS-65 by ACG(???) The die crack starts at the "O' in "One" and continues CW through the top of "UNITED", through the right wing and ends between 2 denticles between the S and T in "STATES". There's also a smaller die crack that runs through the top of "STAT". In addition, there's a smaller  die crack that runs entirely through "AMERICA" and ends at the star after "AMERICA" and finally, a die crack that runs through "DOLLA". I can't get better pics, sorry, but is this common for this year and mintage? Oh, and by the way, are die cracks considered VAM coins? I don't really collect Morgans but have purchased a few over the years. One more thing, just looked at the obverse and there's a die crack from the base of the bust through "189" There's also some weird die marks under her ear...I'll try to get pics of those. Sorry for the long story but this is pretty exciting for me! I wish I had a better camera<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie5" alt=":confused:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]
