Description

1891-P VAM-2A Doubled Ear, Mustache, Clashed Obverse n Discovered by Steve Sabella, April 1980. This coin is a Top 100 and a WOW! Morgan VAM. '''2A'''(revised) '''III22 · C3a (Doubled Ear, Mustache, Clashed Obverse n) ( ? )''' '''Obverse III22–''' Die break in front of upper lip from clashed die w/ faint partial incuse n of In from reverse next to Liberty's neck. '''DPIS - ;Emission Sequence :Obverse: :Reverse: '''Comments: # The [[1891-P VAM-2A is a late die state of the fairly common [[1891-P VAM-2 doubled ear. It shows the same doubling of the lower earlobe on the obverse. A small die break occurred on Liberty's upper lip and can be seen as a "moustache" shape. This doubled ear, die break combination is '''exceptionally rare''' and should be snatched up in any grade, even very low-end circulated specimens. Sometimes only a small part of the moustache is visible as the break has not developed fully. These are desirable but not worth as much as the full moustache break.
