1885-O Morgan with possible dbl'ing on Reverse

KopperKid

I was wondering if you folks could help me out with this coin. I noticed possible double in the "STATES OF A". I am a rookie at this stuff, so bear with me please. Is this a VAM or just the way the coin looks. The image shows a scratch on the holder, please ignore that.


Thanks to all

We can't see pictures you link from your hard drive. You need to upload them to a free hosting site. Do a search for "posting pictures". You will find all sorts of good information.

Sorry about the delay in the reply. The wife has kept me busy with the Honey do list!



The auction is long over and out bid several times. But, I am still curious if this is doubling or not.

Probably just machine doubling... that being the case, there's really no premium.

Oh, and welcome

Hi and welcome .
Your coin is not in the top 100 VAM. Still a cool coin.
Hope you hang around here. Lot to learn here

Thanks for the info! "A lot to learn" is an understatement, but I am starting to do my due diligence. I have got several books on order for both Morgans and two-cent pieces. I enjoy ancient history and thinking about ..what do you folks call it: "the dark side." I have many coins, but nothing of real interest or value, since I was just a kid. Merc's, Wheaties, Ike's, and wartime nickels. I did get to hold a dandy of a coin (ancient), I'll have to post some shots we took back in the eighties/early nineties of it.
