Cracks and clashes. Big pictures.

I frequently do not see detail in a coin until I get to look at a reasonably good picture of that coin. This one has a lot going on.

This 86 Morgan has a crack that originates at a star and runs through the 1 of 1886. A die clash seen under the neck, extra metal under the lip, which is likely due to the clash.

There is a die crack that originates at the second U in Pluribus that runs through the cap. There is more evidence of the die clash in the right field. And, a third crack that runs from the hair to a star.


And, the coin is toned (that, I can usually spot from across the room). Anybody see anything else?

There are two ways to conquer and enslave a nation. One is by the sword. The other is by debt.
