VAMWorld 2.0

Good to know. You can send the prize of two cases of Bud Light to my front door

It could be called maturation.

It just looked familiar. I won't swear I am right.

1902-O VAM 10

Does this help?

There is a lot going on with the 04-O series, including die incest. While only JB/JR can change listings, they seem to me to work well as is.

Just a guess, but what about an occluded gas bubble that got squeezed out under the S in the direction of planchet metal flow? Or, for some reason a thicker planchet in that area that did the same thing? Just ideas.

Having done this for over 20 years, I often find it amusing when VAM values come up. If you get into this hobby to make money, you will be sorely disappointed. As an example, name one person who SOLELY makes their income off of VAMs. Think hard before you answer.

Maybe the administrator can clarify or expand.

I started counting peacock feathers at the zoo because of this. Got lost in the shuffle.

Got mine today, burgundy 2XL. Russ, thanks for doing this and quick turnaround!!!!!!!

Whatever happened to "buy the coin, not the holder"? If you trust a holder, from any slabbing service, you can be disappointed. Conversely, great coins can hide in holders also. While this type of post can be helpful to some, you need to know the coins.

Did we forget about the clashed E scorecard?

Okay, I will play devil's advocate. With a M/M set apparently high, how does this get a VAM-1? Others will likely ask so thought I would.

Lee, I actually find this back and forth entertaining.

My suggestion to everyone is to just let these two have it out at their leisure. If you don't want to get distracted by their posts, don't look. They will never see eye to eye anyway. It is the never ending battle of mistruth, unjustice, and the unamerican way.

I''l take a 2XL in burgundy if available. Just need to know where to send payment. THanks.

For this discussion to be meaningful, the definition of "high" or "significant" premium needs to be defined.

I remember a time when I sent a 1902-O to Leroy and mentioned a coin I sent him had a doubled profile. His response was something like, "when is a doubled profile a doubled profile?" The subject coin demonstrates two things to me. One is the listings are and were necessarily brief and do not mention...

Generally we ask for folks to try and attribute coins themselves. Can I assume you have done so?
