dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 10/18/2014 09:29 am Just wondering if you purchased this from one of the several sellers on ebay that seem to have an endless supply of raw frosty PL Morgan dollars? I have been looking at many and cannot recall being able to identify just one VAM number. I been tempted to test this water but haven't come across one yet that fits the budget of a raw example. Yours seems to have PL fields but I cannot tell if it meets DMPL from the photos posted. BTW, 97-S is no stranger to PL & DMPL examples. Report this Post to the Staff
westernsky Pillar of the Community United States 7618 Posts	Posted 10/18/2014 10:40 am Unless the weight and dimensions are "off" it looks like a typical 97-S DMPL Morgan. There are lots of them out in coinland in the MS 61 to 63 grades. Report this Post to the Staff
