Hello, I just got this one for my collection, what impressed me about this coin is the amount of die breaks this coin has. Can anyone confirm this being a VAM? if so what VAM # is it?
Breaks are: On Right Wing
On Tip of Left wing
Coming down from the rim down the "E" in "STATES" dividing and crosing the last "S" in "STATES" and the other side going down the the word "GOD"
On "U" of "UNITED" down over the star on to the "O" in "ONE".
On right wreath going down to rim between "R" in "DOLLAR" and the star.

OBVERSE: Across the top of the cap.
On the first Left star and the begining of the bust.

Please Help.

All Morgan dollars are Vams. What you call breaks are die cracks that have not yet progressed into die breaks. Breaks would be much wider and noticeably raised on the coin. I do see some clashing on the reverse of your coin. Can't tell if any lettering transfered to the obverse. I can tell you that the date falls into the "far" catagory. You may be able to match your coin to one listed on Vamworld.com. Compare yours to the ones listed with a far date.
