VAMWorld 2.0

Glad you like it!

Looks like it also took one in the denticles. Cool coin in a soft pack, though!

When you create a thread, below the box to enter your text, next to the "attachments" tab, there's a "poll creation" tab. That's where you set it up. Good luck!

Are you talking about microscope close-ups or full coin pictures? I'm using two entirely different setups for these. Full-coin setup is optimized for quality, microscope optimized for workflow.

It's in QA right now. Grades should pop soon.

The first run of these is sold out. If there is sufficient demand, and I imagine there will be a second wave, I'll get another batch printed.

Also, use the wiki's search capabilities. To search for a date with a mint mark, it must be in quotes because of the hyphen, "1886-O". You can use the word "rotated" as an additional search term and you'll get all the varieties for 1886-O that mention being rotated.

How do we pay?

Send me a PM. You'll pay with a check or PayPal. Hopefully a website able to take payments will be running for next year's supplement.

14 of the first print run of 25 are already spoken for.

One thing that might trip you up is the 2. From your photo, it looks like the lower half is filled. If this is the case, be aware that the die chip that causes this happens later in the die's life, and that there are probably coins from the same dies without the filled 2.

1902-O is a good date for divide and conquer. There are reverses that are C4, C3, and C4/C3. Then look at the date and mint mark position. This doesn't look like one of the privately made ones.

😂😂😂 I am working this VERY coin as I login to ask a question I see this. But, the coin I have, has a near date and a low date. Which to you go with first? Lateral position is more important when trying to figure these out. Secondly the obverse has III2-6 as well as III2-10. It also has attributes t...

After working out the logistics for this, I'm happy to announce that the 2022 VAM supplement is now available. This booklet covers changes in both Morgan and Peace dollars for 2022. The text descriptions are only for 2022, as a comprehensive list including everything back to 1992 has not yet been me...

These were on the planchet before it was struck, created when the strip was drawn out to the correct thickness.

I will update the VAM 120A page to say "Discovered by RogerRock as VAM 1BB in 20xx". I'll also add the relevant pictures from Leroy to that page. This will reflect what should have happened when Fogie submitted his coin, which is a revision and a renumbering of VAM 1BB as VAM 120A. I can't really fa...

This thread cracks me up. Play by the rules or go home. Rules change. By the way, don't bring politics into this forum. I am surprised Messy didn't delete this thread. I'm not going to delete it, but I am going to lock it. Everyone needs to play by the rules. When the rules are too onerous, people ...

Interesting problem. I looked into this and found conflicting information. FedEx shows collectible coins as specifically being prohibited from importation into Canada. Canada Border Services Agency only shows base metal and counterfeit coins as being prohibited. USPS states is silent about collectib...

Knife cuts in the coin.

Thanks for posting this. This link goes directly to RG 104 Entry 11. The years that can be clicked represent the earliest year of correspondence for a given range (e.g., click on 1838 to find Box 6, 1860 for Box 11, &c.) I'll also add a link to Entry 11 on the NNP Resources page on the wiki.

I would list that as VAM 40A if it weren't already listed as VAM 40A. Thats @messydesk You are good at keeping a thread on track. I think you may need some practice on hijacking one :) I am just kidding! I can do better than that. If a thread is hijacked and starts going to a bad place, I can launc...
