*** Edited by Staff to Add Year and/or Mintmark and/or Denomination to Title. It's essential to have it in the title.  ***1887 P Morgan dollar (die clash on reverse and die cracks going all around both the reverse and obverse) This Morgan dollar is graded by PCGS MS64 in the OGH. No clue what specific VAM # is this. Please help! Thanks!

That entirely depends on the Grade. Which is impossible to tell from the single photo you provided. You can use PhotoGrade on PCGS's site to approximate a grade and then see what coins of that grade brought at auction.

As I stated, it's an MS64 from PCGS

If VAM-13 is correct, that wouldn't add a premium to the coin. Full photos of the coin would help if you want opinions on the value, but recent ebay sold values for an 1887-P PCGS MS-64 are in the range of $70 to 100. |

How does a VAM not add premium to a coin? |

VAMs are basically die varieties of Morgan dollars, so nearly all Morgans can be assigned a VAM. Only the most sought after VAMs (with striking features, easily recognizable, or scarcity) carry much of a premium. |

I would check the date and see if this is a VAM 2. |
