Coinfanmorgan Valued Member 357 Posts	Posted 12/27/2012 11:58 pm I would have posted my other disucssion here, but I assumed at first these die cracks were errors. Now, the cracks appear to match the 1921 VAM3H2. Can someone help in confirming this possibility? Also, should I send it into PCGS? The red lines trace the die clashes. The coin looks better in person. Ignore the circle around the M. Edited by Coinfanmorgan 12/28/2012 09:27 am Report this Post to the Staff

If your coin does not have this gouge, it's not a 3H. Furthermore, 3H has no die cracks on the left side of the obverse. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfanmorgan Valued Member 357 Posts	Posted 12/28/2012 6:39 pm Thanks. Do you this could be a VAM with the die cracks being where they are? Or is it too small to be a VAM? Report this Post to the Staff

dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 12/29/2012 09:28 am In the case of the 1921 Morgans I believe the die cracks are a useful tool to distinguish the different dies. Beyond this, I agree that die cracks on prior dates for the most part will need to have some sort of die break or field displacement to warrant a sub listing. Someday I'll attack the 1921 VAMs and give SsuperDdave a little competition. Report this Post to the Staff
