VAMWorld 2.0

So much to be said, but... giphy.gif I do have to say this: Levi, the attitude shown above is PERFECT bridge burning material. Why would you post pictures and ask for attribution help, then, when you get the correct answer instead of the one you want, say "How can you decide that with my crappy pict...

Daaaaaannnnnng! You Suck Chris!! WTG!

(sigh)Yeah... next year...

Yup.

Love the "recap" posts! Great read, thanks Dennis!
Maybe next year...

Yeah, I know Alan, but I wasn't aware and you didn't stump hard enough for it...
Another nice set JR!

Man I hate to see it when people decide "Ehh, maybe this wasn't the best choice for a pet" and release those things into the wild...
Well, maybe they can challenge the pythons for king of the invasive species down there.

Love the reading material Patrick!!

Oh, sorry, replied before reading the post!
SWEET! Glad that "damaged by sticker" coin is good for something!
And THANKS for letting her be mine for a while!

TMI John!

Let me look thru my 1879-S, 1880-S, 1881-S and 1921 (s) - I am sure we can get you there!

Don't "look through them" Brent, that's JB's job!
Anyone have a bag or two of mixed MM 21's laying around?

Did you search those for an elusive Royal Blue Piggly Wiggly rabbit?

Barring a miracle, it looks like I'll be missing out again this year...

Basically a very subjective difference Bert. There may be specific guidelines that split the two, but if there are Leroy has bounced back and forth across the line many times over the years with listings. I say anything that is as thick/heavy as that (v16? 28?) is a die gouge, in spite of the offici...

Hmmm... not sure, but I think it was something minted out west in 1921... I swear I can't think of what it was though... I think I made mention of it here...

Oh, and JK, thanks for using the proper verbiage!

Among 95-O's the 3a is pretty common. It made the list because of how cool the placement of the rust makes it look... and it has a cool nickname... and because a 95-O adds some meat to any Morgan collection.
It really brings a smile to my face seeing that "WOW!" label slapped on her!

This is a weird one for me. I have found several, but I'm not willing to say it is "common" among 81-S's. I think the lowest grade I've ever found was an MS64. I own or have owned 1 in 64, 2 in 66, 2 in 66+ and an MS67. In other words some dedicated searching and patience will net you a gem eventual...

i've seen an 89-p that was nearly this clashed that is not a 23a fwiw. don't recall the vam number.

fanstastic super cd!

VAM-19b2? The reverse is particularly incredible.

JR, I'm afraid if we blew it up it would be totally unrecognizable and retain no collectable value...
Do you guys have a "Details-Detonated" label?

Wow! If I hadn't seen the date I would have guessed 1889-P VAM 23A! Almost but not quite Dennis... this one was definitely one of the last cuts on the list and, if it weren't for the fact that my own status of "clash junkie" already made the set heavy on clashers and being that this one also has a ...
