I88I O FLAKY EYE VAM 1D

I was lucky enough to have seen my 1881 0 Hit List 40, WOW FLAKY EYE VAM 1D, awhile back and jumped on it online. It is not graded, but looks like a GEM UNC, to me, with beautiful mirrored fields, both obv and rev. I noticed several other 'maybe' die markers, beside the flaky eye, that I didn't see ...

Re: DARKSIDE 1923 CHIN BAR VAM 1F

I got side lined, but here are some pictures of the rims, on my 1923
Peace dollar.
Do any of these pictures look like a collar clash?
Thank you, Bert

Re: DARKSIDE 1923 CHIN BAR VAM 1F

THANK YOU EVERYONE! I don't think back, when I found this chin bar, there were other varieties or I was to excited to see them. I just looked, with my loop and I think I see something, a long the rim. I'm going to get on my old PC and hook my digital microscope up and take a closer look. My old Wind...

1881 S WOW! VAM 1B PCGSMS67

Here is my 1881 S PCGSMS67 WOW VAM 1B, with the die chip on the wing. I was lucky to have been looking for the die chip, while looking at the 1881 S Morgan and I couldn't believe my eyes and clicked the BIN online, awhile back. At the time I was told it was the highest grade known, so you can unders...

DARKSIDE 1922 S VAM 10

Here my 1922 S PCGSMS63 VAM 10 Elite 30, that is easy to miss, if you are not looking for
the rays running down on top of the mountain and the extra ray, all on the reverse.
I was very lucky, that I saw it awhile back and bought it.
Enjoy, Bert

Re: Reputability of SEGS & PCI?

I confirm with, buy the coin not the slab or the grade. When I first started collecting silver dollars, I saw this nice looking 1880 in an AAG slab and bought it. Many fellow coin collectors made fun of it, because of the AAG slab. I was never able to see any vams, but I just liked the way the coin ...

1890 O VAM 1F

When I saw this beautiful 1890 O, in an old thick NGCMS63 slab, I was going to buy it even it it wasn't a vam, a long time ago.
I did attribute it as a more common vam 1F.
Glad I saved the seller's excellent obv and rev pictures.
Enjoy, Bert

1880 NGCMS63 VAM 32A

I tried to do to much on both vam 11's, the other day. I had taken some picture all three and posted some of the vam 32A pictures on the vam 11A post. SORRY! Here are pictures of my 1880 NGCMS63 vam 32A. It has the cool clash through the u,s,t, in trust, on the reverse, not my vam 11A. Also the roun...

1880 VAMS 11 AND 11A

While looking through my 1880 Morgan dollars for a vam 44, I found these two, so far.
My 1880 NGCMS64 vam 11A (old thick NGC slab) and my PCGSMS64 VAM 11.
Here are a lot of pictures.

Re: Checkmark mystery

Remarkable pictures.
I have some unattributed 1880 Morgan's.
I doubt if I could see the checkmark,
I will look for the doubled eye and go from there.
Very interesting post, Bert
