*** Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. ***

there is a story with this coin before 2 weeks ago I owned zero Morgan silver dollars. I was at my local coin store and noticed 4 morgans in the case all less than $ 60 .which at the time was below spot on silver so I bought them.and this is what I found.the best markers are the light die crack from the 1 in the date and the die crack on the knot(reverse).what do you think as always thanks for your time and comments.

Not VAM-4. The repunching on the 1 is weaker and I'm not seeing the doubling on the ear and eye.

This looks to be VAM-3: https://vamworld.com/wiki/1886-P_VAM-3

Still a neat find!

Vamming Morgans can be addicting. I had good luck vamming my first few Morgan's, and I said 'hey, this is easy, and fun.'Let's just say it got challenging real quick. Nice finds.

I said on more than one occasion I was not climbing down the VAM rabbit hole. I must have lied.

I have so far resisted. The rising price of silver will continue support that resistance.

It's fun until it's not. I have moved away from them somewhat, but the pretty lady still has me....

The design is very eye catching but the key dates are many and way more than I'm willing to pay. So I think I'm safe unless I'm lying again.?
