Re: 1883-P VAM-20+ LDS Doubled date, stars, motto, LITY in LIBERTY. etc.

1883-P VAM-20+ LDS Many thanks weth I see the attributes that match on your VAM-20 FCPs. My LDS version has less pronounced die polishing lines in several spots, with some lines missing, so I thought them to be different. The reverse shows progressive die wear and the major features are still there,...

Re: New Orleans MInt dollar coinage and dies used Feb 1904

I think it is very interesting and as pointed out it shows very low mintage for some die pairs. Unfortunately nearly impossible to match to a particular VAM but it still means some are very scarce. Thanks for posting.

Re: 1886-P Doubled Date-Pegleg on 2nd 8, clash Help please

@alefzero Thanks for looking. VAM-25 has mark at top inside of 6 that is different, and die scratches in the ear. The reverse clash is about the same spot but not as strong.

1886-P Doubled Date-Pegleg on 2nd 8, clash Help please

Been trough the listing several times. Can’t find exact doubled date or die break that puts pegleg on the bottom of the second 8. Clash on reverse goes to at least midpoint of right side of the n, so obverse letters may be there but metal flow along neck is convoluted. Reverse die cracks on VAM-19 a...
