They're not exactly common on 8TF's, but without information I lack I will not offer judgment on rarity or value. I pinged someone who is in a better position than I to have an educated opinion.

A tilted partial collar on an 8TF is worth a premium. Not sure how much, but definitely a cool coin that would attract buyers.

Although seemingly fairly common on 1878-S, for instance, so far I've been able to find only one 8TF on the Internet, and it a full Railroad Rim. This cannot be taken as any sort of accurate statistic. Collectors tend to hold these things close to the vest sometimes. But then again, in a liquidation situation that works to the seller's advantage.
I wouldn't call this a very liquid coin, even though it'd probably put a smile on your face if you got it in front of a directed audience at the right time. It would rivet the attention of those who were accumulating Partial Collar Morgans, because as a 14.1a it's not particularly rare in the 8TF scheme of things so the variety wouldn't add any real premium in the 8TF context.
Get this one into a slab.

Pcgs slab if it were mine because you want to see as much of that rim as possible.

PCGS would probably call the Partial Collar a Details/Damage. NGC would call it an 8 Reales.
Yes, I'm kidding. Sorta.

PCGS will charge extra for it being a mint error if you want the tilted partial collar mentioned on the holder. ANACS still doesn't have a pronged insert, as far as I know. If you don't care if it's mentioned on the holder, look for someone submitting a large PCGS order of Morgans and piggyback onto it. Contact me off-list for details (use e-mail address on the homepage link in my profile).

messydesk... email me at home as to my (here on the forum's email, your not approachable (won't/can't receive emails from me):
I'm a transparent an individual as you'll find anywhere. ;-)
NopeNopeNope. Every scammer who can bring Google up on their computer will have your info by Midnight. This place is too efficiently indexed by Google to ever let a member publish that stuff. You're risking more than you think - it's $9 to tie that number to a street address.
I'll provide this to John off-site.

If I spoke my true opinion of PCGS practice, the Bad Word Filter would make this post a blank block. They've pretty much defined themselves as the enemy.
