BOY!, that's pretty nice! I'm thinking MS64+ maybe 65. Just not sure about the scuffs to say 65.

The obverse appears to have 3 die breaks present at 2"4 and 7 o'clock. I don't see any on the back.

I agree with MS64 and the VAM is unassigned, Check out the VNA1 at the bottom of the VAM page.

I think this could be classified as MS65. Great coin.

Yes. This is a VAM-1 VNA coin.

I hate to highlight my ignorance but what does VNA mean?

VNA = VAM not assigned. Leroy's opinion is all the details on this late die state Morgan are not enough "meat"to assign a separate listing. You really need a die chip or displaced field for a sub listing. This is one of the more interesting Morgans to not achieve a listing for what it is.

It's Hard to believe that this coin with 3 significant die breaks/cracks on the obverse hasn't been given more attention. I have much to learn...
