Hi everyone! I recently inherited this 1901 S Morgan dollar. I do not have much experience or knowledge of Morgan dollars so I'm at a loss with this one. There is a large capital D printed on the front of this coin. Any idea as to what it could be from? Thanks for your help.

Looks like someone counterstamped a letter D on her face, PMD

It's a counterstamp. Someone did that with a punch so, technically PMD. Some people collect them, though. They only have added value if the counterstamp can be traced to the source. In this case, it's anyone's guess what it means.

@Emily

There's an entire topic here devoted to coins like yours and you'll find many interesting examples. You should post it there, too.
