I have come across a 1921 Morgan and on the reverse side it says Six Flags and has an image of what appears to be a log ride going downhill. I cannot find ANYTHING about it on the internet. I find this very strange. PLEASE HELP!

1---Welcome to CCF.
2---Your question would be seen by the appropriate audience if you posted it in the US Modern section.
3---It looks like if (?) what you have used to be an actual Morgan, it's now nothing more than former Morgan converted into a 6 Flags token.

to CCF! Unlikely Freddy I don't think it is a genuine morgan. Instead juat a modern coy. Better pictures along with weight and diameter could prove otherwise.

Two possibilities.

There was one of those pressing machines at an old Six Flags, where you put your morgan into the roller and it re presses the reverse into a Six Flags token, like the penny machines at Disney World.

Or it is just a souvenir token made to look like a Morgan on the obverse. Better pictures would help.

Even with the blurry photos, my impression is that it was never a real Morgan - there appears to be excessive relief in the eye, nose, and mouth areas.

The denticles around the edge of the coin don't look right.

to the forum. It is still interesting whether it is a Morgan or an souvenir.

I truly dont think that is a genuine Morgan. Likely just a souvenir token of sorts...
