Hello again everyone. I went to the coin shop today and decided to try to do some cherry picking out of the Morgan bins. I was looking specifically for die cracks which make it easier for me to attribute the VAM.
I picked out this 1896 P Morgan dollar and have attributed it to VAM 6-A. Here are the notes for 6-A from VAM world.

"1896-P VAM-6A Near Date, Doubled 6, Clashed Obverse n
Discovered by Jeff Oxman, June 2005.

6A III2 6 - C3a (Near Date, Doubled 6, Clashed Obverse n) (189) I-3 R-6
Obverse III2 6 - Clashed die with faint partial incuse n of In from reverse next to Liberty head neck.

Comments: 1- 6 doubled at top as a curved line. Date is further left than normal."

I'm pretty sure I've got this one attributed correctly, if anyone has any other suggestions please let me know.
Thanks for looking!

Not to be a grumpy bug but you probably know this has been scrubbed clean.

Yea, I unfortunately found out after I bought it. It looks good in hand but the cleaning shows up in pictures.
Rest in Peace

Yes, 6A as long as the "N" transfer is still visible. This one, like many others, will revert back to the parent VAM after the letter clash wears away from the die.
