VAMWorld 2.0

Provide photos of the various die states of V-109.
There are plenty of VAM folks here that will give opionions.

In my notes I have order of production as 109, 100, 65, 10.
Don't have notes on what attributes were used to determine this order or where I saw this order.

The II8 obverse of the V-109 is shared with V-10, V-65, and V-100.
My 109 has a very noticeable eye spike.
My V-100 and V-65 have the same noticeable spike but shorter than V-109.
My V-10 is low grade (F12), and I cannot see a spile.
In the photos V-109 and V-65 it looks like two spikes.

Some in 64 and very hard to find in 65.

Thanks for the info. I did find a train schedule that had a page that indicated time between Omaha and SF. It says the time required between Omaha and SF is, for Express Train 4½ days. Did not find anything about Omaha to East coast. The distance from Omaha to SF is 1665 miles. The distance from Oma...

The A...

A month or so ago Clay C identified that 78-S V-88 and V-112. have the same obverse.
I noticed a little while ago that the V-88 and V-112 have not been updated identifying the same obverse.
Is there someone on the forum that has the privileges to do an update.
Thanks in advance.

I would like a 2022 VAM Supplement.

This an excellent find. I agree a V-62.
Mintmark is set higher than normal (but not a high as V-60) and set further left than the other Long Nocks.

Excellent Vamming.
Time consuming investigation proves fruitful again.

Good words to live by.
I extend Happy Thanksgiving to all.

check V-8 die 1.

Here is reverse of this 78-S.
As you can see not a V-17B

I can see this gouge on the second of the Full Coin Photos for 17B
Thanks for pointing this out to me.

No clashing on this V-17. I consider it a V-17 DS3.

I have been looking for one of these for a while and finally found one.
I have seen one where the gouge goes thru the hair and continues for a short while onto the field.

My son got me an Insignia Mobile Photography Kit a while back. I tried it on an iPhone and an iPad. The macro lens had to be so close to the coin (Morgan dollar) that there was not enough room for light to get on the dollar for an acceptable photo. I could not figure out how to get enough light, so ...

sent you a PM -- I think.
I sometime have problems sending a PM.

there is good guidance in the replies.
This might be a V-75.

The listing of VAMWorld 78-S VAMs has a list of "Believed not to Exist" at the end of the listing of individual VAMs.
The 1, 54, 61, 85, and 94 should be moved into the Believed not to Exit group.
