[QUOTE="1voice, post: 16789, member: 1362"]Thanks so much for such a quick reply! I edited the date in my first post, not sure of the exact one. The figure on the obverse is a larger lady's silhouette with a crown, a bun and flowing hair (I'm just looking at a very vague outline) - I figured morgan by the looks & nothing else. The back has no markings now, having been worn away. I did use a magnifier to see if I could see anything else. The only other marking was the crack, which I believe came from the mint as a damaged/error. I remember being disappointed in him for having the coin in his pocket so worn away when it might have brought some $$ value in later years. Anyhow, I really appreciate the knowledge; I didn't want to spend oodles of time and care on a coin of no value except for what's in my heart. Of course I'll care for it, but I won't worry about it like I do the other coins I have. I have the memories, and you're right, that's worth more to me than the coin itself. Many many thanks for helping set my mind at ease! L J[/QUOTE]
