Unsure if there's a clash on the obverse, I use a scanner which has trouble capturing clashes/errors. The reverse on the other hand appears to have a couple clash marks and a few of them appear very strong. Report this Post to the Staff

Keep it up though that is why I still peak back here often, pennys are free, and there are still many hidden treasures but the same still goes with Morgan dollars. Lots of new varieties to be found.

TheCentMan Valued Member United States 162 Posts	Posted 11/27/2012 9:00 pm I definitely love clashed dies, I love almost all error coins in fact! Nothing more beautiful to me than a nice error coin. I have a lot of wheat cents to look through (about 3,000 I think), haven't even began to make a dent yet. Once I get through these coins I probably will consider collecting a new type of coin and Morgan dollars were one of the coins I was considering. They might be a bit too pricey though for my budget, any other coins out there with nice errors you'd recommend that are a bit cheaper than Morgans? Report this Post to the Staff
Kman Pillar of the Community Canada 933 Posts	Posted 11/27/2012 9:16 pm Yes you usually won't get a Morgan under $30, cause the numismatic value is usually worth more then the melting weight of silver but VAMS can seriously increase the value and make it very fun to find/pick but you have to do it secretly, dealers don't really like it. Make sure you have a small detailed list of vams you want don't get greedy, and ask if you can see coins from those years but don't tell them your looking for VAMS, good luck! P.s. very difficult to collect different denominations let a lone Morgans, lol That's why I've turned to Morgan's! And there Pretty!! Report this Post to the Staff
TheCentMan Valued Member United States 162 Posts	Posted 11/28/2012 03:33 am Thanks a ton for the advice Kman! Sounds like something I'd enjoy doing. Got a question though, aren't most VAMs only visible with significant magnification? I think a dealer might be suspicious of someone examining a coin with a high power loupe. Or is that something most people do anyways (looking at coins through a loupe in a shop)? Report this Post to the Staff
