I went down to the Central Florida Coin Club show in Orlando today. Here's some of the better stuff that I picked up....
1798 Large Cent...Help with attribution? Large die breaks on the reverse...This is my first 18th Century coin
An 1878 7TF VAM 115....You can't see the TDO from the pictures, probably, but believe me, it's there.
An 1882 CC for my album....
Awesome crescent toner!
Another very cool toner.
Yet another toner, which now resides in my album as well.
Another Morgan I needed for my album.
Another one for the album.
A 1921 D with a lot of die cracks....VAM?
A 1921 S VAM 6A R5...Check out that awesome die gouge between the "B" and "U" on the obverse!
This one I need help with. It's a 1922 P Peace with what looks like a reverse die break...what do you guys think?
Here's another coin I need help with. No closeup on this one, but there is a raised area on the cheek. Is this a known VAM?
Here's the last coin I picked up today. I thought it was really cool, and I only paid 25 bucks for it! it's a Peace dollar struck on a cracked planchet.
I also bought this today. I though it was pretty cool! I paid $40, by the way. It's a Trilobite.

You wouldn't believe how long it took to get him to sit still for this.
the 1921-D Morgan is a VAM 1O (oh, not ten)
a very nice looking example !

Great pick-ups...

I don't think so.
I know I have one. It is interesting in the clash. The crack at DOLLAR is similar to VAM-N (unicorn D). Forget if this one is a VAM-1, a scribbling scratch, or some other listed one.

so do i. click the vamworld link. it shows it very well.
The fossil looks nice, I'd guess Upper Silurian to mid-Devonian
in a nice clean Limestone to weakly Dolomitic Limestone (Keyser? Fm.) matrix.

Thanks, but I'm not so sure either. I don't think the cracks are the same, and I'm pretty sure there isn't a break above the A, although the picture might make it look that way. I believe there are some scribbling die scratches below the eagle though....Perhaps it's a new VAM

Nice Large Cent, Great hoard of Morgans, and super cool Trilobite.

Cool! I googled "Moroccan Trilobite" and found this page, which is very informative.
Thanks a lot for the info!
