About the 7/8 TF Variety

In 1878, the Mint initially struck Morgan Dollars with 8 tailfeathers on the eagle. Mid-year the design changed to 7 tailfeathers — and the 7/8 TF variety was born when new dies were hubbed over old ones, leaving a ghostly 8th tailfeather visible beneath the 7. It’s one of the most dramatic and recognizable varieties in U.S. coinage.

VAM-41C Attribution

VAM (Van Allen-Mallis) attributions identify specific die marriages in the Morgan Dollar series. The VAM-41C is a documented, collectible variety sought by dedicated Morgan specialists and VAM collectors worldwide.

SUPERCD Designation

The SUPERCD designation indicates exceptional cameo contrast — deeply frosted devices against highly reflective, mirror-like fields — on what is technically a business strike coin. This is a rare and visually stunning characteristic that elevates this coin well above a standard MS62.

First-Year Issue

Struck in 1878, the inaugural year of the Morgan Dollar series, this coin carries the full weight of American numismatic history. A VAM-attributed, SUPERCD-designated, first-year 7/8 TF Morgan in uncirculated condition is a genuinely special find for any serious collector.
