I assume you're referring to the O mintmark on the silver dollar's reverse. DUH! That would be for New Orleans and not Ottawa. The eBay poster of that stupidity should be flogged at sunrise.

You are 100% correct. Thanks for pointing it out, I did not know. After checking, here is a link that shows the various mint marks for the Morgan and Peace dollars.

Hope this helps.
