Patrick, it isn't often that die chips and/or gouges will warrant a VAM designation unless they are very extreme. More often they will simply be used as die markers for a more noteworthy variety. Take a closer look at the mintmark and date to see if there is doubling present. According to the Red Book of Morgans, there is no significant variety for this date/mintmark.

Nothing that I can see as far as the CC or Date, What I was thinking ,or I was wondering, if I might want to send it to Leroy and get his opinion,,

I don't think it would be worth the trouble if there isn't any evidence of doubling or something more notable than the gouges and cracks. Even if it were attributable, it would not add significantly to the value.
