Zombie lips ,,,, Hobo dollar , moden forgey or un atrributed VAM , mint error?..,I would really appreciate some input from you folks. I got to tell you this thing freaked me out the first time I looked at it in a dark room under my little amateur loop magifier thingy . Its kind of holograpic when you tilt it around. Looks like the corpse bride or maybe my ex wife . Oh and pleased to meet you all for my first post on your forum .. Please be very patient it has been a minute since I have posted on a public forum . Thank you all in advace . Now I am off to your image optimizer (tutorial) to see if I can shrinky the pixels .lol

@unc, first welcome to CCF. Second, we are gonna need pics of your coin in order to help you. Please add overall pics of both sides plus a close up of any specific details. Thx.

I don't know too much about Morgan dollars myself, so, other more experienced folks here will be along shortly to help.
But a photograph would help greatly to see what you are asking about.

Wow I got moved . K so I might need the new guy discount here. Could I please beg the moderator for a friendly e mail address to forward these pics to . I'm not on my work laptop so downsizing pictures on this old tablet is gonna take more time than necessary . I assume you have a message system on this board as well is there somebody internal or external I can send them ? Thanks . I just found you guys searching for answers on google .this format reminds me of the old ez boards . Thanks .///Bob

Sorry for the delay . Give me a second and I'll do better on the pictures . Hard to believe I use to own a forum of my own . Just like riding a bike . Try this for better size .

The coin looks to have a contact mark from the reeded edge of another coin both on the cheek and in the hair just over the ear. It's just damage, as it didn't happen during the strike.

It just looks a little to precise' like both of them in the same plane sort of thing same spacing of whatever made the marks too. My first thought was hobo dollar . But then I wondered if it got caught in the conveyor or something fragment off the die and they struck it twice. I just don't know . I will have to take a picture of the reverse but nothing jumped out at me as abnormal . Its a no mint P I guess .
Nothing real special in the VAM World for this common year that I could find to explain it . Maybe someone with a leather punch did it on purpose . Heck if I know . Thanks for your response, I just have not ever seen anything like it . and my VAM book is not here yet . lol

. I agree with an edge hit from a reeded coin.

Well thank you folks for the input . I am not very good at all this yet . Long story short , I did something everyone advised me not to . I bought a couple shot gun rolls off the internet. So out of 40 Morgan's I have only sent one of them in for grading so far because I thought it was beautiful. It is not this 1882 -P I have posted, but it was also a Common, no variety I know of yet, because I don't know what all the VAM stuff really means .That subject may take 10 or 20 years to get a basic idea off. .///Bob
