Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6385 Posts	Posted 01/31/2008 9:46 pm Hi Zachary, Looks like a solid, no-problem MS-62 or -63 to me. The grade is limited by the moderate chatter on Liberty's cheek and scattered marks in the fields. I don't know anything about the VAMs for this year, but I see the prominent clash marks at the front of Liberty's neck and by the eagle's left wing. I presume those are characteristic of one or more VAM types. Decent coin! Report this Post to the Staff

SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 02/01/2008 3:28 pm It's clashed, but clasing is common with Morgans. The prominent clash-related VAM's almost always involve letter transfer, usually the "n" or "In" in front of the neck, and a "t" or "st" in the vee of the hair above and left of the second right star. MS63, I think. Report this Post to the Staff
