Q. about a Morgan rev

nuz · February 22, 2008 11:32AM

1878 Morgan and on the rev is a larger sized upside down S engraved perfectly under the wing.

Has anyone ever heard or seen something like this or have an idea of what it could be?

Thank you,
nuz

Picture?

I'll be trying, the one I have is too big to post.

open a Photobucket acount and then download it into Photobucket. Paste and copy the bottom code
and post it into this message board. Easy to do.

I cropped as small as I had to so it would be less then 50k to upload on hear.

Thanks for the photo bucket tip. But I'm not sure what that is either.

How about a picture of the whole reverse?

How about a picture of the whole reverse?

That could take me a day or two.

Go to: Photobucket.com and check it out.
That's generally how most of us upload BIG pics to this board.

Could be a struck through?

From your close-up image it appears to be a counterstamp(post Mint) rather than an engraving. Someone had too much time on their hands, and a letter punch conveniently at their disposal.

Pic links added.

Thanks again

I'll see your "S" and raise you "2"..........

I think you're right about the counterstamp. This buffalo is engraved (or chiseled)....
