Something is odd between the L and I in Liberty

[Keith Chambers]

Hello everyone, I was looking at a new coin that I received which is an 1883 cc Morgan silver dollar an in the word liberty in her crown between the L and I I spotted this odd mark, Has anyone ever seen anything like this?

In my opinion, whatever it is, it's pretty small / minor.

The only thing I can find is...

Or, It could be a very minor lamination, very minor strike through or something else.

The mint goes off tolerances, even in quality control back then. It's difficult o know if it was on the planchet before the strike or, part of the die. The rings were noted on newer style coins, but since it's difficult to know their origin, it's difficult to give a solution.

Thank you, I took a look at the link, wow that is odd.

You would have to ask Mike Diamond about this, to see if it qualifies as a die ring. I do not know if it ultimately affects value. I would think not, since it is super small, and non dramatic.

Fill out the contact us form, tell them what the coin is what you see and paste in this post link into the contact form comments. It then allows them to have a look at the photos. If they are too busy and/or reply by email, you could then reply to them with a photo or two. I highly suggest to keep their email private and don't use it on a whim. I've contacted Mike D like 5 times over the past eight years or so for a general guideline.

One question. When you hold this Morgan Dollar up to a light, does it show the cartwheel effect ?

I want to rule out something that Lonesome John Devine used to say.
