      General Notes: This popular but scarce variety was created when some leftover Morgan dies from 1886 were repunched for use in the 1887 production year. A similar variety exists for the O-mint of that same year. These pieces are tough in all grades, though become especially challenging around the AU level and are rare around the Gem level and higher. PLs are quite scarce and DMPLs are truly rare, especially in the Gem range, where they command phenomenal premiums.
