Re: 1921 P 17 berry D1 Necklace / new arrow head?

Re: 1882-CC VAM-2 to VAM-2E help!

Yes I think your right but I dont know much either, whatever my opinion is. That is why I want to submit the coin to vss since it was suggested this might be an early 3, I guess somewhere between 2 and 3??? what do I know, need bigger brain to look and tell me go or no go. It may not be worth submit...

Re: 1882-CC VAM-2 to VAM-2E help!

Early stage of VAM 3 and that's all. I will tell you that over-magnification is doing a number on you. Newby Question..... if it is an early 3, somewhere between a 2 and 3, can I submit this coin as to divide the existing listing into another die stage? or are the differences not enough to attribute?
