I am likely way off base but could this coin be a new discovery? I see many that are not nearly as unique as this one and are worth considerable dollars. I found this today while going through some silver dollars. Looks like she has her chin and lip pierced. Guys tell me if this coin is deserving of mention and should be sent around as a new discovery or is this a common die clash and I am wasting my time. Anyway I will call her the Miss Pierce Variety

    In anycase it is a nice clash.

    die clash with reverse die


    what other areas on obverse and reverse show the clash?

    The date is 1887. There is a die clash opposite the 6th star back of the head. Also above the second star located RT of the date is another clash located in the base of the hair. One very tiny point clash located eye high center of the nose. It is a very Tiny point extending into the field.

    The reverse has a clash across from the ER in America in the wreath. The reverse has a die crack surrounding US of A.

    Thanks,

    Jim

    it is a new discovery for you, but it could be 1887 VAM-14A

    Sinin1 ,
    Thanks for the ID. That is with some differences. The reverse die crack has not progressed as much as the one in VAM Works Pic. My chin and lip is a lot stronger then the one on line.. But it is the coin.. The coin grades MS-60 maybe a little better. Would you have an estimated value?

    Thanks Jim
