I'm trying to work through some 1878-s Morgan dollar varieties, and there are a few with a funny looking broken r in "trust" on the reverse.
There are also a few 1878-p Morgans with similiar "funny looking broken r" (3, 4). I am looking to purchase some for study and comparison to the 1878-s Morgans. There are multiple dies with similiar looking broken r's, so they may be from an intermediate broken hub state, or they may have been repunched individually. I'd like to see if I can verify to my own satisfaction which possibility it is.
Most 1878 7TF Morgans (second reverse, aka reverse of 1878) have either a full r (1), or a partially broken r (2), or they have die chips around the full r (5, 6), or the serif on the r may be completely gone(7).
I'm looking for an 1878p 7TF Morgan with a "funny looking broken r", such as the one in (3) or (4). Preference in grade is AU to MS64, since those are still relatively affordable. If you have one for sale, and it has that funny looking r, please offer it to me.
Thank you.
