ExoGuy, That's some good information thanks. I'll keep my eye out for those.

SsuperDdave, So you contacted E-bay in reference to that 1895 p morgan?

. If you peruse the 1861-O half dollars on ebay, you can spot some of them. Be careful to look for and study the four varieties before buying one though. At least one seller is offering one that appears to lack any of the die breaks.

There are 14 varieties, six of which were struck by the Confederacy and only two of them have prominent die cracks I believe.

The ones I look for that have a fairly good premium are: 1) Die crack from the nose to the rim (best one); 2) die crack running between 8+6 in date; and, 3) speared olive (to eagle's lower right) on the reverse.

Yes, using the "Auction Reporting" link further down CCF's list of forums. And the "Confederate Half" mentioned here is gone now, too.
