jny New Member United States 20 Posts	Posted 08/14/2019 04:25 am I was wondering why the star is broken on the 1878 morgan. Its not just in phili but cc an sf why did all the mints have this star broken? Another curious thing on All dates and mints of morgans is the letter N in united, it has a doubled N or a break on the diagonal, anyone know why? thank you Ben Report this Post to the Staff

SeatedNut Pillar of the Community United States 2797 Posts	Posted 08/14/2019 10:23 am jny, This is a hub defect. Hubs are used to create working dies and are created at the Philly mint and shipped to branch mints, where mintmarks are applied. That's why you see this defect at all mints.
