I dont know much about Morgans although ive learned quite a bit over the weekend. A friend has a big collection of them but has no idea about errors or varieties. I found this coin and it has doubling on the date, most of the stars and EPU. It looks like a late die state and LIBERTY might have possibly been doubled but hard to see now after the polishing. It has a 7 TF back but otherwise is in pretty good shape. The date is def something incouldnt find a match for and I'm pretty sure its not PMD. It was def the die that cause this. It looks like some sort of clash because it is the shape of the wheat stalks. Atleast thats my guess. Any help would be appreciated.

Ive looked through the lists. Cant match it. Especially the 8 in the date. Thats why I posted it. Maybe a one off? Unless I missed one. A nudge in then right direction is appreciated.

I'd know that '8' anywhere.. Try VAM 33

Thanks seatednut. The 8 def looks close and stars match but none ofnthe die markers are there and the examples shown look like an older die state but my coin shows no cracks or extra feathers or any other die markers. The 8 in mine doesn't look like a die crack either. Its not just some metal that squirted out. They look very close in a lot of ways and yet still very different

Ive looked at a few more examples and I change my mind. It does look like VAM 33. Everything matches except for the absence of die cracks, extra tf and clash. Maybe they were polished off or this was prior? Idk. But everything else matches

You are spot-on.
