I would greatly appreciate any and all help I can get with figuring out what happened to this Morgan?!! I assume it is from when they RESTAMPED the 7 Tailfeaters but I've never seen anything like this before! Thank you in advance. 1878-P-Morgan-7-Tf-With-Some-Crazy-Lines-On-Back-Of-Coin?-Not-Scratched

I don't like the look of this one, especially the mushy date and lettering. Maybe it's just from cleaning, but I wouldn't touch it.
Whatever the case, I can say confidently that it didn't leave the US mint with those marks.
Would you happen to know the weight?

Diameter and width are exactly correct! And it also shines like a real morgan under a paper towel lol. It probably just has some silver in it

Done. It took me a long time to figure out how to use that image editor.

I certainly wouldn't rule out the possibility of this being a cast fake, with those being porous spaces as a result. Like mentioned, the details look mushy

If it is genuine, that's definitely post-mint damage and it was likely cleaned pretty aggressively to try and hide it

Looks like a Porsche that has been through a bad accident .
Cleaned at one time, polished, scratched badly .
Definitely a melt bucket Candidate
Rest in Peace

Post strike damage gets my vote.
If authentic it would fall in the B2c listings (broken r in trust).
