MontCollector Pillar of the Community United States 2403 Posts	Posted 08/24/2016 01:47 am I've had this in my Dansco for a while now and just noticed the reverse looks a little off. Like it was rotated by about 15 degrees counter clockwise. I took Obverse picture and just the flipped page to take reverse picture. Is this common for this year and mint of Morgan dollars? What do you think? Thanks...Mont. Edited by MontCollector 08/24/2016 01:52 am Report this Post to the Staff

twodsonegf Rest in Peace United States 637 Posts	Posted 08/24/2016 1:15 pm Morgans with slight rotation are not too difficult to find, and tend to carry little to no premium. Still cool, and a nice looking coin! VAM-18A? Report this Post to the Staff

I went and looked at it again, looking for the DIs'. Couldn't find them, so I looked again for die chip. It is there. Hard to see, had to move coin around to get light to hit off it. I am revising this to a VAM-18A(Still a hot-50). VAM World also mentions the rotated reverse as common for VAM-18A Report this Post to the Staff
twodsonegf Rest in Peace United States 637 Posts	Posted 08/24/2016 2:39 pm ..and there you have it, ha! Don't ask me why, but for some reason I have always enjoyed those what I call "reverse" slanted dates, where the 1 is set higher than the other three digits. Too bad no photos for the page though!

I always thought this was one you VAMMED for me, but I can't find any other posts on it in the grading or VAM sections. Report this Post to the Staff
