VAMWorld 2.0

Back to the top again, I am still looking

To bring this one back to the top, I need to look at my 1923S files for this & other coins.

I am not convince that this coin is a VAM 1W, the die scratches especially in the lower rays do not appear to be the same as shown on the VAMworld page. With 1921 Peace having an estimated 400 die marriages, there are a multitude of unlisted clashed/polished varieties, of your appears to be one. Hop...

On the macro on the VAMworld page for VAM 1o, there is a horizontal die scratch from the snout of the 2nd 1 in date extending left.
I agree with the Colonel, try VAM 1W.

Regarding VAM 2K2, you found the variety, even if it was initially given a different listing, so you still get credit for it.

Congratulations, and Good Job!!

Jody Faust gets credit for the discovery.

Not sure if this photo came across

Thanks to diligent study by other VAMmers, I have made the following changes: 1922S VAM 2AF eliminated, same as VAM 2K 1922S VAM 2AF2 became VAM 2K2 New 1922S VAM 2K3 - Die cracks B, R of LIBERTY with slight displacement Obv II 1 polished die crack R to Y of LIBERTY. Rev B2a. Tripled spikes on eagle...

EDS 1C?

Nice pickup! I am not sure of any doubled dies in Morgans which can match this one. Maybe Hotlips? Maybe Shifted eagle?

Nice pickup, in an old rattler to boot!

The rim appears to be fairly well struck up, so I would lean toward a grease strike through.

First of all, there is good information for starting a date study in posts above. Having done date studies on most dates of Peace dollars (sorry, not 1921 with an estimated 400 die marriages!), I would recommend starting with a low mintage date to "get your feet wet" In doing this, I have found near...

Nice Pickup!!

I found a specimen of this variety. This reverse is paired with a minor doubled die obverse, most prominent on the DI.
The die scratch on the leaves is a useful die marker, but not obvious enough to warrant a listing on its own. I am still studying the coin re: giving it a listing.

Nice pickup! There are still good coins out there.

Not a dramatic break, but it is a scarce coin. Nice pickup! It il likely to be quite some tome before finding an upgrade.

I didn't see an attribution in the preceding posts, so here goes. Try VAM 1BO

Minor die cracks are common on Peace dollars, and are not listed or listable unless dramatic or showing displacement. From what I see, yours is VAM 2.
