1901 P Morgan VAM error?

[JOBESSI]

Hey guys-

 

I have to questions on this 1901 morgan. 1. there's some kinda sike going through the zero on the date, is that a VAM?

 

2. The field have a really weird satin-like look to them. I looked under a 20x loop for whiz hairlines and I couldn't find a whole lot, so I don't think it's b/c of that. Could it be die polish? or perhaps it was whizzed softly with something that gives off a satin-like effect?

 

take a look and let me know your thoughts.

Your photos are a little blurry, so it's hard to tell about the finish or the date. It looks like it might be a die gouge in the "0" of the date. I checked on VAMWorld, and there is no description that mentions a gouge, nor is there a photo of one. You should be aware that ALL Morgans are VAM's.

That coin has been whizzed. Take another look at my recent article on surfaces, and compare that to the Seated quarter I talk about.
