VAMWorld 2.0

I believe it's only the tax reporting law that changed. Online marketplaces that manage payments are now required to report $600 or more in gross payments within a tax year. They will report to the IRS and taxpayer on form 1099-K. However we will only owe tax against profits less losses like always....

Merry Christmas! And best wishes for the new year to all.

PCGS posted the grades for my submission today as well. It's what I expected as one of the so called Peace Dollars had a flaw in the obverse field which looked almost like a lamination issue on a real Peace Dollar, except the flaw crater was really smooth instead of textured. I took them out and gav...

That's one of my favorites on the Elite 30 list. Dr. Close comments on it at about 11:00 in this video.

Mr. VanAllen has passed the torch to three of the most respected VAMmers in the VAM community. This is a great time to be a VAMmer. I agree. Leroy is transitioning it correctly, where it can grow with continuity. I am very encouraged by this announcement. I dived into VAM World just last year and t...

#60232 ends with a live auction on Dec 15, 2021 if I read that right.

I assume these hammer prices are driven by slab collectors and PCGS 'Everyman' competitors. I've paid premiums to get original GSA packaging but I didn't take it quite that far. Imagine the hammer prices if PCGS started adding double plus grade suffixes and counting them at .75 instead of .5 points ...

Hello, I have a few Peace Dollar VAMs closing at Great Collections this Sunday the 7th. 1924 VAM-1G Elite 30 PCGS MS-63 AOH https://www.greatcollections.com/Coin/1071404/1924-Peace-Silver-Dollar-VAM-1G-Wing-Break-Elite-30-PCGS-MS-63 John attributed these but sadly GC removes the VSS labels for some ...

Thank you. I suspected as much and didn't want to use an erroneous reference.

I am searching for images and any additional pick-ups for the 1924 VAM 1BB. It doesn't appear there are many known specimens. What are your thoughts on the attribution of this dollar? https://coins.ha.com/itm/peace-dollars/1924-1-clashed-e-vam-1bb-ms63-pcgs-pcgs-population-2-0-ngc-census-0-0-ms63/a/...

Listing the PCI details violates eBay's collectible coin and currency policy. The seller likely cropped the image to avoid violating this policy. https://www.ebay.com/help/policies/prohibited-restricted-items/collectible-currency-policy?id=4337 I believe the green holders with 10+ digits in the cert...

9/15/2021 Trades complete. I have this extra to trade if anyone is interested. It is in the newest PCGS holder with AOH and pictures. I have not sent it to CAC but I don't know if previous owners have tried. Here are some that I'm looking for. I prefer ms62 or better already in PCGS holders but will...

I had to submit the order twice before it went through this time which is annoying but better than some past experiences where it just seized up and dropped my session. At least the 'reminder' text message went out a half hour before they went on sale instead of four hours after, which used to be th...

NGC will actually apply a .50 grading credit for each label returned for individuals with an associate or greater membership level. I always save them up and include them with the next submission.

Is there any data on 1924 VAM 1G in MS63 or MS64?

Thanks,
Adam

Thank you for the feedback David and Roger. PCGS has imaged it as well. https://images.pcgs.com/trueview/42569158

I'm still terrible with doubling especially in the Tiara rays. Any thoughts on the 34-S? Am I seeing things that are not there?

Check VAM-1Z.

Thanks for the feedback. I agree with 8C in review. I saw what appeared to be a cashed E and went after it. It will be interesting to examine when it arrives.
