Is this a die break??

I picked this up fairly cheap, so it's no biggie, but the pic looks like a die break through Libertys tiara. I checked the Peace dollar top 50 for this, but didn't see anything listed for the year, so if it is a VAM, it's a minor one with no premium value. Any opinions?

It certainly looks like one from here.

I think it looks cool, especially if you didn't pay a premium for it!

I haven't actually gotten it in hand yet, so I'll have to post a closeup scan as soon as it gets here. Does anyone know where to get a complete list of VAMS for these? www.vamlink.com only lists the Hot 50 for Peace dollars and the Hot 100 for Morgans.

Cool new weasel pic, Myqqy.

Try the Ashmore web site for a complete list of vams. It's recent and images are in a different section than the description.

I'd need a closeup photo to determine if it's a die break, strikethrough, die gouge etc. Good luck!

Technically, it would be called a "die crack".
