skeletonx New Member United States 10 Posts	Posted 08/31/2014 11:49 pm Sorry for the poor pictures on this one. The coin has some significant toning, and I need to redo my lighting to get a more accurate coloring. Anyway. See the picture, on the reverse of the Morgan, some of the E in ONE, and almost all of the D in Dollar is missing. The detail on the reverse of the coin is there including on the chest of the eagle, so I didn't think it was wear. Is this an error, rather than a VAM? The E has break through it just above the center element. Not sure if this shows up in the photos. Thanks JT Edited by skeletonx 08/31/2014 11:50 pm Report this Post to the Staff

DoubleEagle20 Pillar of the Community United States 1750 Posts	Posted 09/08/2014 10:54 pm Probably Struck Through Grease. Philly ran their dies on Morgans until chunks were nearly ready to break off. Hard to find choice specimens from the high mintage Philly years, that don't have the greasy or grainy look or massive die cracks. Report this Post to the Staff
