1921-D Morgan loaded with die cracks

[Deleted User]

I just spent an hour or so reading about Morgan's and a few other subjects on the PCGS app. That app is an amazing resource of information.
It got me interested in looking at my Morgan's. I have around 100 of them. The article I read was about the 1921 series and is a good read.
So I pulled a few out to look them over and found this one which is loaded with die cracks. I did not see them before because I never really looked. I will be looking at all of them carefully now. The break through the right wing is pretty neat I am not sure if it is a break of a gouge. I am thinking gouge because at the bottom below the wing it fans out. The mark on her neck I am unsure of but it's a pretty straight nick for a coin that has not seen much if any circulation.
Is this a certain VAM?
Does it increase the value?
I am getting ready to sell off all of my Morgan's to increase my budget for my current collecting pursuits.
I'd appreciate your input.
Enjoy the images.

VAM World is where you want to check out. The neck looks like damage.

all classic morgan and peace dollars are vams, even if just vam-1. vam 1 is noted by having NOTHING noteworthy and from there the listings get added based on classification.

this is a good place to start for 21-d with loads of cracks/breaks. (not sure every single one is on the list but most for sure)

i know which one yours is but i'll let you have some fun first.

You have VAM 1AM. 1921-D has a lot of nice die cracks, arguably the best of the 3 mints. 1921-S typically has mushed out dies and no die cracks. Extra value? Not really. Fun coin, though.

I honestly cannot find it. I don't see one with a cud, a long break or gouge down the right wing. I am not seeing anything like this. Some attributes yes but not to this extent. I will continue to look. Please don't tell me. I'll find it LOL.
What is throwing me off is the CUD. I don't see this on any examples or do they occur intermittingly.

It's a VAM 1AM
That was fun.
Suttle differences but to many matches to dispute what it is. That was fun. It does have a small cud I believe that's what it is so in a sense it unique

Is the coin circulated?

No I don't believe so I would say it's AU to be safe. It's really an awesome coin!

Some nice die cracks, the mark on the neck is PMD..... Cheers, RickO

I agree with the neck nick. I only added it just in case and as an honest assessment of this coins properties.

in the future, please add full obv/rev pics. when we try to find vams, it makes it A LOT easier if we have more rather than less diagnostics to compare.

for the picture of the "cud", when they are that small, it is not easy (imo) to determine if it is actually a rim cud or just a bit of folded-over metal or perhaps a little that just got scraped up. if you look at enough coins, not just morgans, you will see this quite often and can be in several spots all around the rim and sometimes a bunch of them right next to each other and just so that it has been said, any of that size, probably even on proofs will VERY rarely bring any premium, if ever.

hope it helps and thanks for sharing.
