what caused this?

Coin is a 1921-P. Several of the letters in PLURIBUS seem to have metal dragged from, and over, the tops of them toward the middle of the coin.

Re: 1921 Wide Reed VAMs

I have an O/CC VAM 7, but it's only PCGS-45
And I have a 25A in PCGS-64

Do you need 27A? I have an ANACS-63

Re: OT: contact for AVC Numismatics?

I've been dealing exclusively with Nick, but I'm sure he could pass my email address along to Nick, which is all I'm trying to do. I'll send my address to you via PM.

Re: new pixs for 1883-S VAM 4 page

John: Thanks for your comments about this VAM. I find it... interesting, then, that LVA rated it only R-3.

Fogie: I little luck never hurts in the photo department. :D

new pixs for 1883-S VAM 4 page

These were shot from an early die state M.S. coin, so the features are very sharp. Would someone please add them to the attribution page?

Let's play guess the grade on this. 1879-S 19099774 close small obv.jpg 1879-S 19099774 close small rev.jpg SO the coin arrived today and it looked almost nothing like th...
