My reaction is 62 with a shot at 63. But there tends to be very little price difference between MS60 and 63.

You have an O mint?

Oh hell!
Guess I'm not finished after all.

Russ (twohawks) texted me a while back and said he just knew I didn't have one of these – and he was right! Thank you sir for completing my 1921 mint mark type set! :lol: 1921-CC LFCP obv.jpg 1921-CC LFCP rev.jpg It even has scribbles! Sort of. 1921-CC scribbles.jpg The master engraver struggled wit...

Can't wait to see photos of that coin!

Looks like VAM 49... doesn't appear to have the displaced field break above AME to be 49A, nor any cracks in/around NUM on the obverse.

The strong polishing lines at the base of the UTFs should/will be an easy key PUP for this VAM, even in modest grades.

There were No Shared Rev with The 1878 -S Vam 60
The reverse only lasted for 1000 copies.

These are fascinating details!
So it looks like there were only 1000 VAM 60s made?
If so, that would explain why they are so &@*%!! hard to find.

My Regular Service order (not economy) for crossovers was logged into the PCGS system on March 23, so I think it's been 69 business days of waiting so far. Sure makes the website's stated 50-day turnaround time look like a joke.

Great coin Jeff! (I absolutely love it.) That is an unusually large amount of rotation; most of the examples I have seen were 75-90 degrees. These often come in Mint State grades; I recall seeing one many years ago in a PCGS MS67 holder. Yes it does have a premium -- a pretty significant one. My gue...

D2 reverse. Tons of scribbles. I've been through the scribbles guide several times with no luck. Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated. scribbles-2 copy.jpg J.B. -- Please help now, otherwise I'm sending this to you. :twisted: messydesk small line from left star.jpg small line from right...

Might be a silly question, but does your car have a USB charging port in it?

It does not; 2007 Accord.

I have a special hate for the way new cell phone models of the same brand often have different power supply "in" jacks, thereby rendering the company's old car chargers (which were too darn expensive in the first place) useless. Does anyone know if adapters could-should-do exist that would allow me ...

Confused by the paper trail on these. This thread indicates no tail feather gouge on 3A1c. The 3A1C attribution page heading very clearly says and shows that it has a gouge at the tailfeathers -- "1921-P VAM-3A1c Scribbling Die Scratches, Spiked Tail Feather, Die Gouges Stage 1" The old thread was,...

If it has the gouge from the tail it is either 3A1C, 3A2, 3A3 or 3A4.

Here is a 3rd example of a 1921-D that PCGS has attributed as a VAM 1A TRU_T that is so not it's ridiculous. The first two I showed in recent months were jokes because they both still very clearly have most of the S showing: http://www.vamworld.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=6439&hilit=PCGS But this ...

The NGC site has a cert. lookup function, and closeups of this coin were available. I'm curious what made them certain this is an 1882-CC, since the tops of the numerals are so distorted.

Thanks SO MUCH for the update about LVA. He looks wonderful!
