Few different things from coin club: Counterfeit, lincoln errors, & a VAM ID

Had coin club tonight, picked up these odd balls among other things. Any comments?
1921 Morgan dollar - weighs 27.11 grams and doesn't sound like silver... you thinking what I'm thinking?
Thought this 1919 Lincoln was pretty neat:
This 23 Lincoln was given to me by a friend as he knows I like odd things - any thoughts?
Lastly, picked this up primarily due to the die cracks on the rev and some slight doubling showing in some of the Obv letters & date. Couldn't match it to any vamworld pictures, anyone know if/which VAM it is?
Thanks!

19 is a really cool coin
23 is a great lamination
and 04 looks very nice but not the VAM guy

The 1921 Morgan could be a genuine coin that was in fire (which could alter the surfaces and ring tone).

Fake. The weight is too much. A fire shouldn't cause a coin to gain weight.

I know off-center wheaties aren't that rare, but anyone have an idea how common 1919's are?
