VAMWorld 2.0

Look for a high 9 in the date.

Note the position of the flawed 9 logo punch in the date.

Will do.

I noticed there are no full coin images on the V38 VAM Page. Here they are from the discovery coin.
@PacificWR could you drop these photos onto the page?
Thanks in advance!

It is a done deal.

Hi @keilg1 thanks for the feedback. My bad, I missed the @messydesk posting of Aug 6, 2022 that stated “Former 7A is 122. Since it’s not related to VAM 7.” However, there are still problems with the pages, and maybe the premise that the -7A is not related to the -7. Also the VAM-122 has not been po...

Back to obverse: Every coin in the study has raised reed like marks at the jaw-neck line from die damage (see “1900-S VAM-29 (-27) Reed Clash Marks at Jaw-Neck” posted Sun Jan 31, 2021, where I misattributed the group as V-29 when ...

This is wonderful work. Thank you for all the effort you invested to untangle this confusing mystery.

Thank you. To be able to show what really happened on the 1889-P VAM-23 and VAM-7 Series has been very rewarding.

Thanks for offering that die attribution guide on the die sequences of 1889 P VAM 23. It reflects your in depth die study on this great VAM 23 series. Cherrypicking that 1889 P VAM 23 A out of a bowl of loose Morgan Dollars must have been absolutely epic! Now, vammers enjoy updated die sequences on...

Thankyou, thats alot of great information and hopefully at some point I can be lucky enough to pick one!

Keep up the hunt. Die Sequences #4 and #5 are not rare. There are plenty of them out there.

Several VAMWorld members have requested I develop an Attribution Guide for the Die Sequences for the 1889-P VAM-23B. The format I have selected for the attribution guide will show each die sequence side by side and contain descriptions for each die sequence. Once completed, the attribution guide sho...

Oh, close the front door.

The 1889-P VAM-23 page has been updated to include the flowchart shown below. We may be looking at one or two additional Die Sequences being added, so this flowchart could be updated in the future. If anyone would like their own copy or a link to High Resolution photos, just PM me or send an email. ...

Mike 7E,

Give me two or three days to pull my DC's from the SDP and we will go over both VAMs.

WRP. Have sent you pm and email. shortnock.

Sent a response.

Section D was just added to the post. Section D shows all the Reverse Right Wreath clash Sequences.

This is the third update on what really happened on the 1889-P VAM-23A/VAM-23B. As stated in my previous updates: The Reverse VAM description for the 1889-P VAM-23A list, “No die clash marks on reverse die very unusual, especially for such strong die clash marks on obverse.” and for the 1889-P VAM-2...

The significance of finding the first three confirmed 1889-P VAM-23’s provides a factual basis that renders any 1889-P VAM-23, VAM-23A and VAM23B with a reference to the former 1889-P VAM-5G inaccurate. As the discoverer of the 1889-P VAM-5G, I never did buy into the official Reverse description tha...

A new post will be created in the next 2-3 days with additional new facts that have been just discovered.
