VAMWorld 2.0

@Geseas Ive been thinking about your pictures . looks like one of them had a lot more to eat than the other :lol: . That's the best way I can explain it , I'm not sure why , or how that could be the case . what is the source of the thorn ? the hub or the die? Hey Bob I think it may be a good idea t...

You have that correct. Usually happens on Dennis' 21 photos, and that is real, not a cut. For some reason his photos, sometimes, makes my brain wacko. But he does take great photos.

I remember back when @DHalladay used to take LFCP's. They are some of the best.

I had a big ole post , it was very friendly BTW. I hit post and it disappeared . Jr and I must have posted at the same time . its an old familiar glitch in the php software i think ... I will have to try and write it ay this morning .gain later .... very bus thx Looking forward to you post...please...

HI G , not sure if I'm qualified to make that call . I will have to look at your coin tonight, when not tied up . Duty calls ... quick question , what are the reverses you put on the last page . like what vam numbers? . Right one looks like the Hamilton coin , What is the other one? Yes, the image ...

UNCLE BINGO I think I am having a similar experience with the 1921-S thornhead pg. photos that you are having with the 1880-O Vam-2 photos. Please take a look and compare these two well known Thornheads. They are the same Vam and are pictured on the same page in the catalog. I really concentrated o...

Thank you for setting me straight. UNCLE BINGO I apologize for my assumption. I do not even own the big book, yet. Onward, This photo is of the two Reverses you are comparing? ( I hope I have it right.) 1880-O campare.jpg (I will fill in above photo discription *here*) (Better photos of the above.) ...

Not sure what will happen if you draw lines on this one .. It flat out got me . Dear Bob, I am enjoying your insights... but; You have asked about 3 questions in this one thread... and I am going to attempt to answer them all. :roll: ' An example may be in order here: I have edited this post. I wou...

I can't put my finger on it, but something about this piece bothers me. I'd suggest matching it to a listed marriage before sending it out. http://www.lsccweb.org/BillBugertBooks/Bugert-Vol-IV-NO-Part2.pdf Wow! That is studied coin. Most interesting thread... an added plus. I gleaned some insight i...

well > Having Pinged thousands of samples of a different kind of Metal in my life , just to listen to if it had cracks , you might be on to something .... definitely worth tying in your identification of anomaly. To be somewhat more convincing in reporting your findings you might need another sampl...

Thank you John and RWB.

...Yes, compared to a coin without a lamination error. I am thinking a lot of a lamination error is hidden; kind of like an iceberg.

...maybe the damage on top of 'N' IN GOD is from the same event?

You can infer relative differences, but not absolute. Now, if you could develop this test so that Vampires need only "ping" a coin to determine its variety -- then you'd really have something or should that be "someping?" :D I am downloading the Linux version as we speak. Interesting! Thanks for sh...

Who could have ever guessed that I would be spending my time looking for a Vanilla Plain Jane in a parking lot? Collecting Vam knowledge is a great sport.
.

I maybe a little premature, but let me be the first to congratulate you on a new DC!

I can try and get a page started for you if you like!

Thanks for the informative thread. Please correct me if I am wrong. If keilg1 can locate a LFCP of the 1902-P Vam-2 Obverse, the coin he has pictured above will be a New Discovery Coin? Sounds good to me, but I have made some assumptions. The coin pictured above (FCO) is indeed a 1902-P Vam-2 Leonar...

I will give you my advice . Its a good time to buy whatever makes you smile !

Probably the only sane and sage advice - now and in the future...

Thank you very much for your help ! How rare is it and how to value it ? Welcome Bibibam , I may have misled you with my "nice coin" comment. I don't mean it is not a nice coin, but rather I should have said, "Nice coin to me. As for "how rare it is", and the "Value", they have a link for that here...

Regardless of its size, the collar clash would be added to the existing listing as a note unless a specimen without one can be found.

Thank you, John

Would the http://ec2-13-58-222-16.us-east-2.compu ... llar_Clash page need update also?

Note unlisted collar clash below PEACE .

Looks like that collar clash could make 60 degrees of circumference required. Nice coin!
