This belonged to a friend who wanted something I had so a trade was made

It's an extreemly rare and large "struck through previously struck fragment" error. A delaminated piece of the morgan struck before this one, in this case part of the wreath leaves and olive leaf, delaminated after the strike and landed on this coins planchet before the strike and imprinted itself on the coin. Its a rare error and I've never seen one so large with so much detail transferred. Last 2 pics show the stikethru and area where the lamination wold have been on the previous coin for perspective... ENJOY!

Chris, in theory, a small portion of the previous coin fragment is now on your coin, so the weight of your coin should goes up a tiny bit. You got more silver than it should, haha. Very nice trade.
