VAMWorld 2.0

Looks like an 'n' clash to me.

Count me in as well. The yearly updates are always important to publish in my view.

I got one nice 8 tailfeather coin that I had wanted for years. Laughed at the PCGS EDS Scarface prices, but lost the reasonably priced ANACS Harrison 1B.H3. It was turning into a bidding war and I really didn't want to push it any higher. Hope somebody here got it. The auction is very professionally...

Nice pick. The 38D is a tough VAM to find.

UPS delivery has been signing for the customer for quite some time now. Its because of COVID, they don't want their machine handled by the public. They do verify you are home though, or they won't leave the package. Same thing happened the other day with a USPS signature. They ring the bell and step...

This is all the result of the Wayfair vs South Dakota decision in 2018. Wayfair sued to prevent sales tax collection in states where they had no physical presence under 1967’s Bellas Hess and 1992 Quill cases, where the Supreme Court had already held that states could not require an out-of-state cat...

Very nice diagnostic photos. I added them to the page.

Congratulations John! Its a tough goal as many will attest.
My standard top 100 set is named "hopeless endeavor" as it always seems to be that way for me.

It's a VAM 21 family coin, no doubt. May be a little early for a 21D1. Checkout VAM 21E and see if the denticle impressions are still there under the Eagle's tail feathers. I can't tell exactly from your photo, but it's likely.

I took it three times and it came back different each time.

Obviously, I'm schizophrenic and need all your pity. VAM donations gladly accepted to ease my pain.

I have been looking for this VAM for a while and I just picked up a nice 1896 O VAM-28B, one of the last coins cataloged by Leroy Van Allen and discovered in 2021 by LateDateMorganGuy . It was a dual discovery, the 28A and 28B and also garnered a revision of the VAM-28. It is in a nice grade of 58 i...

I fixed it for you Lewis.

This is the VAM-35A. It has single and double clashing varieties. As the die aged, more and more die cracking appeared, but that does not change the designation. It was at one time designated as both the VAM-14A and VAM-41A, but that was finally resolved and eliminated. They are fairly common and av...

Yes, 7A. Nice pick, hard to find in the wild.

It's been a couple of years now since the last VAM update catalog was issued. I realize the reasons why. Any idea on when an update that will catch us up to the present will become available? I know people attempt to update VAMWorld and the registry on a case by case basis which is a good thing, but...

I like it. Whenever PCGS agrees with Vammer opinions I like it. Doesn't happen that often.

Sometimes, when fishing in Ebay with murky photos, you have to take a chance based on the best information you can find. Thanks VAMWorld, for providing the information. Now, what could an 1896-O in an old PCI holder called a repunched date actually be? I have been looking for an 1896-O VAM-12 for so...

I linked this forum page to the 1AZ page. My contribution to the darkside for the year.

The mintmark seems to have taken a hit that flattened it upwards and to the left at some point, along with a lot of circulation wear. Very difficult to attribute VAMs in worn coins like these because so much detail is missing. Unless you can see die gouges or crack patterns that lead you in a certai...
