granpagraf

I sent in some Morgan dollars thru My dealer and they came back today. The trip is over 100 miles so I have'nt got to see them yet for photos. The 1891-CC came back MS-64, VAM 3 Spitting Eagle.
I know nothing about this! Can sombody out there give the lowdown on this coin and possibility of what is could be worth?
Thanks Much!!

The spitting eagle variety was included in the Top-100 VAMs by Jeff Oxman and Michael Fey when they wrote the book a decade ago. However, unlike most of the Top-100 selections, that coin is hardly rare. It is, in fact, the most common one for the date out there in every grade. Its value is basically the value of an 1891-CC MS64. with zero premium for the VAM. Some promoters would say otherwise though.

No premium, but a neat variety....nice score on the grade though. I bet its a great coin.
