I'm intrigued by your numbering system.

1921, A, B, C, D, E ???

You have 5, plain P-mint, 1921 Morgans?

holeinone1972 · September 18, 2007 1:43AM

Yes all plain p's unless it says 0, or d.

I was taking pics of obv/rev and I wanted it to be easy to distinguish between duplicate 1921's for example.

My wife is anal, it may be rubbing off. LOL

So that 1921-D is actually just your fourth 1921 coin?

holeinone1972 · September 18, 2007 1:50AM

OOOPS yep it sure is. LOL

I just put all of my coins on a spreadsheet program and I can't help but notice numbering systems these days...sorry!

I found vamworld to look for vams. My eyes hurt already. LOL

Here's some ideas for TOP 100 Vams

1886 - Line in 6/thru M, Doubled Arrows
1889-O - Oval MM, Clashed E, Doubled Date
1897 - Pitted Reverse
1884 -Small/Large Dot

1921- Wide Reeding, Pitted Reverse
1921-D - Tru_t variety, Capped R

To name a few....Good luck

1886 VAM-20, and look for die breaks (large chunks of extra metal) on all 1921 coins.

Could those be on the obverse on Libert's neck?

Upon further review I do have a 1921 D LOL

It is pictured in the 1921 A LOL

1886 VAM-20 doubled date, look below the 1 and inside the lower loop of the 6
1889-O look for crumbled left obverse stars, clashes (esp on a slanted date)
1897 two pitted reverse, one is below the tail feathers (6A) and one is through the N of ONE (3A)
1884 doubled ear
1921 pitted reverses, wide reeding, noticeable die breaks

There are plenty of others for these dates but the rest are pretty common with premiums evaporating. Both 1897 VAMs are among those too.

any vams to be on the lookout for these Morgans...?
