I bought this at an Estate Sale a couple years ago.I went through the VAM World list and got overwhelmed trying to identify this coin. I only have a cheaper usb cam for pictures so please excuse the quality and it's almost impossible for me to take a full pic of a Morgan with my setup. I'm retired now and plan on having some fun with coins and will need a much better scope. any suggestions on something good would be greatly appreciated. I'm willing to spend up to a couple hundred.

Thanks!

You've got a VAM 6. BTW, all Morgan and Peace silver dollars are VAMs. A VAM is just the catalog number of the particular obverse and reverse die marriage.

Thank You so much!I plan on keeping it and wanted to know which I had. I spent about a hour going through the different VAMS until my brain started to fizzle

would you think $80 was a decent buy?

Thank You for your kind help!!
