here is a 1900-O Morgan dollar, but I don't much about VAMs yet. any help would be nice.
1900-O-Morgan-Dollar-VAM? 1900-O-Morgan-Dollar-VAM?

If possible some clearer photos will be needed before I am entirely sure about the VAM number but your best bet would to look at the 1900-O near & tilted date with a high or tilted mintmark. Like VAM-23

(I have a very hard time with these VAM things.. )

Don't be to hard on yourself we all start somewhere and getting in to varieties will be confusing at first. I do apologize for being quite vague in my first post. When it comes to the 1900-O some of the main areas you will want to start with will be the Date & Mint Mark position as these can help narrow down the suspects. Yours has what appears to be Die cracks on the Reverse which can allow us to narrow it down further. Nice photos

@Dearborn It looks like at least a near if not a very near date, slanted, with high set right tilted right MM C3 reverse to me from photos. The reverse looks similar to VAM 33 and a couple others with similar cracks but I couldnt match the crack on the obverse between the first and second left star. I will keep looking, if you have better pics of the cracks and mm that may help. So many of the 1900-O pages do not have full coin pics or more to on.

Cool thoughts above...
I'd add that when I get a Morgan dollar, I look on vamworld at the top vams for that particular date to see if I have one of the specialty varieties and then go from there.
