[QUOTE="silvermonger, post: 708087, member: 12490"]FWIW, Ive got some O Morgans that are very badly struck and an entire roll of 04o that rival the 81s coins for a crisp strike. Its my impression that from time to time new Orleans got -hand me down- dies from the other mints, perhaps because they lacked time (production schedules/fewer machines and or skill with the refinishing bowls. Varying quality could also be as simple as varying top down management thru the years influencing quality control and work ethic. Just like Im stuck in the 60s musically Im stuck on Morgans as far as coins so I havent noticed if other denominations from New Orleans had as much variation in quality thru similar years to the Morgan? Can anyone comment on the other coins minted there?[/QUOTE]
