I have a 1888-O Morgan Dollar, the O kinda looks like a Oval O or a D, I know it can't be a D because Detroit didn't mint any Dollars that year, it also has some doubling, it says Unuted States and you can clearly see the doubling on the coin. Can I send someone some pictures and let me know what you think or post them on hee for me?

    Detroit never made any coins. Probably just an oval shaped O nothing put of the ordinary.

    Looks like a counterfeit overstrike of another counterfeit!

    Agreed... counterfeit.

    It might be helpful to weigh and measure the diameter of your silver dollars. This normally culls out a lot of the counterfeits...

    26.73 grams.

    But I agree in it looking fake.
