1880 Morgan error?
I have an 1880 Morgan that is missing the words "In" and "We" from transverse. Mint error? Stamp error? Not sure what to think.

Re: 1880 Morgan error?
Looks like the letters are removed intentionally after the coin was minted.

That's what I thought too. Guess I'll need to ask a pro to look at it. Was in a sock on my Dad's collection.

It’s caused by being struck through a filled die but the coin circulated so it looks artificial. Some of these are vams or die marks for varieties. You can search vamworld.com
