Here's my cleaned, retoned 1891-O. IMO this is one of the coolest of all VAMs; even though I'm not a VAM collector I wanted this one! The price was so low I didn't even mind the surfaces aren't original.

I've found it quite difficult to get a decent shot of the E clash. It just doesn't seem to show up clearly in my images (probably means I need better equipment!). Here's the best I've done so far.

I have to agree with you. I love the "E" clash Morgans. I don't have one yet, but I will someday soon I hope.

Nice pick!

Very nice clashing and photos, I can see it well.

Try photo editing it with color and/or exposure settings you might have available.

Not only is the "E" obvious, the left leg of the "R" is also crisp, love a good clashed Morgan/Peace dollar, This clash was a sure strong one, that's also obvious........There are quite a few clashed E Morgans, to find them, thats the challenge, nice find.

The clashed "E" reverses are so cool! Sometimes in photographing the E this is a rare time to use the angled shot, the light will sometimes show it off better.

However I see this one no problem, good photo Jaobler!
