Wonders of Morgan Dollars
by Leroy C. Van Allen (Author), Michael Fey (Editor)
Format: Kindle Edition
This is to announce that the Wonders of Morgan Dollars by Leroy Van Allen is now in digital form on Amazon Kindle for only $9.95. It was edited by Michael S. Fey, Ph.D.
This is one of Van Allen's best references showing all the things that can differentiate common silver dollars from rare die varieties and errors. Indeed, you will be treated to numerous instances of die varieties features along with copious pictures illustrating the differences between the variety/error and a normal Morgan silver dollar. It features the authorization history, its appearance and availability among Morgan silver dollars as well as the history of famous hoards.
Among die varieties are accidental flaws such as date digit doubling, date position variations, mint mark doubling, design doubling, doubled ears, hub doubling, counter clash doubling, over polished dies, over buffed dies, die gouges and scratches, denticle impressions, and overlapping reeding. Intentional die flaws include date digit design and sizes, overdates, dashes below date, misplaced date digits, mint mark sizes, over mint marks, identifying dots, dual hub dies, engraved wing feathers, acid treated dies, 1921 scribbles and so much more.
Chapters on counterfeits, planchet errors, striking errors, and obverse and reverse design charts, reed counts, and rotated reverse dies make this an essential reference. This is one of the most popular references among Morgan silver dollar variety specialists and is a must read for every Morgan silver dollar collector, dealer, investor and enthusiast! You will never look at a Morgan silver dollar (or perhaps any other Type coin) the same.
