1878 Morgan Silver Dollar?
Alex W asked:
I want to figure out where it was minted but there is just an illegible dot where it is supposed to say where it was minted. HELP?!?!?!?!?!?

Morgan silver dollars were minted in Philadelphia (no mint mark), San Francisco (“S”) and Carson City, NV (“CC”) in 1878. The mint mark, if there is one, is located on the reverse side slightly northwest of the “O” in “DOLLAR” under the wreath. It’s possible that dot is a clogged “S” — can you find another Morgan with a mint mark and compare the two?
