I found this 1921 Morgan in a holder, that I had never seen before, a long time ago.
I thought I saw something above the M, in AMERICA up to the rim, on the reverse and bought it.
Not a very high grade, but at the time, the vam 19B was rated an R-7.
Here are some pictures.
See if you agree, Thanks Bert

Would that coin be better called 19A? The cud seems like the distinguishing point on the B

19A
people may pay more for the classic holder than the coin. people collect holders, too.
nice die crack
it's hard to tell from the obverse photo, but this seems a better grade than the current ms60 grade standard
I like it for the coin and the holder, which i don't have an example of yet.

Better than MS60 and in an interesting holder.
A BIG THANK YOU EVERYONE!

I'm just not paying attention, SORRY!
I had it marked VAM 19A.
After looking at the two vams again 19A and 19B, mine clearly doesn't have the missing denicles, above the M, in AMERICA, caused by the very cool rim cud, on the VAM 19B.
I'm not sure why I put VAM 19B, in my post here.
I think I was able to see the 'die wear lines', in the one picture below.
I know, I have never seen another slab, like that one again.
I just did a search for a AACGS 'AMERICAN Alliance Coin Grading Service' graded coin and and found this video.
THANK YOU ALL AGAIN, Bert
Acording to the video above AACGS 'Americn Alliance Coin Grading Srvice' doesn't have a very good reputation.
Glad I found this 1921 Morgan though and I thought the grading was accurate.
The old saying buy the coin, not the holder.
I haven''t seen any places selling coins housed in that holder, after I had bought this 1921.
How much did AACGS charge to slab their coins when they were in business?
I didn't have my 1921 Morgan graded by AACGS, I saw and won it, already in the AACGS slab I think on Ebay, many years ago.
I can't remember now, but I wanted to win it, because of the slab.
and despite the bad talk, today someone may want it because it's in that holder... but for different reasons than you
