ilikeikes Pillar of the Community United States 1205 Posts	Posted 01/16/2015 1:00 pm Hi everybody..curious if this is just a well-preserved mint state 1921-P morgan, or, a more desirable proof strike? The crispness has me wondering? Also, why is the N in IN have that odd missing right piece in the middle..never seen a N like this. TY Calvin Report this Post to the Staff

Oddly enough, we're discussing one of the 1921 "proof" dies in the other active 1921 thread in this forum. Report this Post to the Staff

SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 01/16/2015 5:26 pm The "N chip" would have to be a fill, of course, as that spot is a void in the die. It's a really interesting feature, though, not seen often. The strike is pretty good; I'll call it great if the cotton bolls, talons and largest bottom leaves are fully detailed. Can't quite be sure from these pics. Report this Post to the Staff
