Re: 1883 O MS 64 Morgan Dollar - Die Crack

Go to VAMWorld, look up morgan dollars, look up the date and mint, and compare and try to match your coin to the vams already known for that date.

Re: How to Authenticate slabbed coins? Weight?

Is there a reason for you to suspect that your specific coin is a fake?
It could get quite costly if you get every coin bought (re)authenticated?

Personally, I would be wary of any coins coming out of China. That would cover about 90% of your fakes.

Re: Mint error /wrong planchette?

The current penny planchet is a thin layer of copper (foil) over a zinc disk.

The thin copper layer has been stripped off in areas and the zinc inside is exposed and has oxidized.
