VAMWorld 2.0

The list was presented at FUN as the program right before VAM Thing. This set is live on the SSDC Registry. It's also on our page here on VAM World with all the previous annual lists. 1. 1878 VAM 166 A key B2 listing 2. 1878-S VAM 60 the stopper for the Long Nock set. These will sell strong in virtu...

It is well deserved. It demonstrates a great deal of effort and persistence.

...blissfully unaware of the irony....

We would. This looks like ADC-25c-1976(1776)-01 from the MAD Die Clash site

Yes, except for the S mint mark.

Cool, it's unlisted

Your award is en route and well deserved

I daresay there are more Kennedy Half variety collectors than you're aware of. Plus the guys that work multiple series. There are pieces very similar to this that have a number, and if I felt like it I probably could get this called a discovery piece. But that's not the point. My question here is do...

So I'll throw this out there as a comparison. What would you do with this coin? Does it actually warrant or even need a listing number?

PM me with the slab number and I should be able to answer you

The obverse really is a one and done deal. If you look at one of these, there are four shorter rays at the back of the tiara. There's only supposed to be two

He'd have needed a bunch of those. 4 maravedis was roughly equivalent to a British half penny

the old Spanish piece from the time of Columbus

....and not a Morgan in the bunch Louisiana Purchase Expo medal from 1904. AA Weinman is the medalist, designer of the Mercury Dime and Walking Liberty Half. Next is a 1625 Netherlands West Friesland Lion Daalder, there's a possibility this actually circulated in New Amsterdam. and an old copper or ...

I think some one from Coin World did videos. No idea when they'll be available

Bumping this for a conversation about it at FUN with @messydesk

At least some trace of the 'long line' is found on every example of VAM 163 and 167 (same rev die) that I've examined.. I mentioned this feature in my 7TF attribution notes published years ago in VAM View. It's a shame it ceased publication and nothing has really taken its place. It's understandable...

I'm supposed to be there. We'll see if Southwest cooperates and actually flies out of Columbus next week. I'll be at the company table and my presentation of 12 VAMs for 2023 right before VAM Thing. The show should be good.

There's a little spike that comes off the the left side of stem just under the boll. It's in a somewhat protected area so it will survive significant circulation. This marker is present on the VAM 9 and 35 obverse. It is not on the VAM 77/77A

The stage is listed for the breaks. The clash is incidental as you thought

That 21 collar clash is fairly minor. Leroy felt this was the case when it came to him and simply noted it in an existing listing. I've seen nothing that would warrant a separate listing.
