I selected this 1889-O Morgan from the $17 bin at my local coin shop. It had that winning combination of light wear, minimal marks, and attractive original surfaces at a nice price. I noticed that the O mintmark was set distinctly off-center to the left. I've checked VAM World and the only variety that seems to fit is VAM-21 which has an R-5 rating. There is also a clashed version of this type listed ( VAM 21A) but I don't see the clash marks on my coin. Can anyone confirm the VAM number?

Thanks!

Certainly appears to be the #21. Can't tell if it's the 21A. Don't judge by the picture on Vamworld. The clashed S is in the hair vee and they are showing a clashed leaf at back of profile under bonnet.
