VAMWorld 2.0

Cool! 15 years is just the criminal part. Now let's see what kind of damages NGC gets to take this guy for.

The information will be migrated to a new website that will look and behave like Wikipedia. Here's a sample of what to expect:

Paralyse here (Adam), long time habitué at CCF and eternal VW lurker. I like the new forum a lot and should now be able to post a lot more as a result ;) ... I collect everything, but my main passions are silver Washington quarters, Morgans of course, early American copper & German States coins/med...

The name still fits, so I'm still wearing it.

Wow, those are strong. I'm surprised not to see anything like it in the CPG, but then Walkers are rather under-represented there.

The confusion between 81-O VAM 1H and VAM 40 stems from the fact that strike and die wear both vary among coins. I will no longer call anything VAM 1H, because I'm convinced it is the same as VAM 40 after looking at about 1000 81-Os as a result of this project. The doubling on the ear is not always ...

For the fourth time, I've had the pleasure and privilege of teaching the Collecting and Investing in Morgan Dollars class at the ANA Summer Seminar this week. We had 9 awesome students who enjoyed "drinking through a fire hose" as we covered history, grading, toning, problem coins, design evolution,...

Once everything is worked out, the new VAMWorld should have the same features as the old one, including VotW and a familiar looking home page, and hopefully a lot of improvements. The only thing that concerns me a little right now is the "VAMs by date" pages, based on how it's currently constructed,...

How much were they off by? You can set your time zone in your profile.

On 78-S reverses, I usually start and end with the engraved feather under the eagle's right wing. From here, it looks like the 24/30/43 reverse.

Yes, there's still time. Send coins soon, as I'd like to get them out by the 6th, if possible.

Tweaks will be done as I can do them. This will be the new VAMWorld message board site, so anything posted here will be kept.

So one of the cool things about the ANA Summer Seminar is their library book sale. Tons of books available for really good prices, all of which were donations to the sale. I picked up some good references the first day, when everything is full price and you need to act fast to get the premium stuff ...

That's a big planchet inculsion. It makes sense that they body-bagged it as a normal coin, since it's has a big negative effect on eye appeal.

You need to post at least three times on the message board before being able to send a PM.

John, have the coin's been mailed in yet?

Not yet. Still waiting for a few submitters.

Eventually, it will be vamworld.com, but e have to transfer the domain after the migration is done and a few things get ironed out.

I think an overlay will show drastic differences in the shape of the 5, as well. Intriguing.

I think you're just seeing the way the reeded edge makes contact with the slab gasket.

Certainly looks familiar. Congratulations. I like the TOC option. I made a minor change to the main heading to reflect agreement with the subheading. It seems that the heading in VW10 has a typo. I'd say the error is actually is the other way around. O/Horizontal O makes more sense than O/O horizon...
