1921 Morgan Silver Dollar
1921 Morgan Silver Dollar .900 silver .100 copper
The 1921 Morgan is the most common year in the series (44,690,000) with the next closest mintage year being 1887 with 20,290,000. Even though the ’21 mintage is nearly 45 million this coin pictured is quite rare for a “common” coin. The above coin is called a VAM. I’m not an expert on Morgan VAMs but I think the one above is a VAM-1K which has an R-6 on the rarity scale (only several hundred exist). Note the die crack through the top letters of United and States. Some collectors hunt and buy only VAMs so which makes my 1-K rare and hard to find. The Morgan series is a great series to collect (if you are rich) – some coins can sell for a few hundred thousand dollars. Don’t overlook variations in common coins – they can be a cheap way to collect.

I was about to leave a comment and tell you that the last photo was formatted badly, then I realized it wasn’t off-center by accident, it was a close-up of the die crack!
