Error? PMD? What is this…1903-O VAM-4A
Vammers, I’m looking for an assist on this 1903-O VAM-4A I just picked up. The attribution was an easy one, so I’m not sweating that part (or am I?) The part I’m confused by is the “broken R” on dollar. To my eye, it appears to have happened during the strike and not post-mint-damage. At first look,...

Re: What method are they using to achieve that look
If you’ve seen Canyon City coins on eBay, you’ll notice their photos are very deceptive. I was able to mimic the look as an experiment and it’s achieved by using a warm and cool lamp, then in post processing, kill shadow detail and crank blacks while adding some brightness/luminance. They also use a...

Sold
Hello and thanks for looking! I’d like to trade my NGC MS66 1903-O that I’ve attributed as VAM-12, O/O Down. Willing to trade for any clashed 1903-O MS65-MS66; PCGS, NGC, or ANACS. I’m trying to build a New Orleans date set with only clashed varieties, so this one doesn’t fit in. No cash, just a str...

Is this a LDS 1899-O VAM-30?
Looking at this recent pickup, appears to be an 1899-O VAM-30, but a slightly later die state? There’s a neat die crack through the lower hair V that made me initially think it was a letter.
Thanks for looking!

Re: Here's today's puzzle
OK, here's the story. This is obviously struck by a cancelled die. In fact, this is one of the 2 oz tokens Ash had struck with the mated 84-CC pair he bought at the ANA. I did an 'About VAMs' column on the dies right after the show. I've had the dies in hand. The pic is from the ANA. After the toke...

Help with 1889-O VAM-11
I picked this 1889-O up recently, I believe it to be a VAM-11 but there’s not a lot of info on the page. I’ve included some full coin photos and the TrueView if it helps. I can also get some better closeups if needed.
Thanks in advance!

Re: Guess the 'clashing through the snow'?
If I’m guessing correctly, this would fit in with the clashed set in building from that mint. Also… WOW!

It’s not terrible, just being nitpicky with the lower wreath leaves.lioncutter wrote: ↑Fri Dec 10, 2021 11:06 pmThat's a really nice 1N2. The reverse looks amazing to me.

Picked this 1921-D VAM-1N2 from eBay recently
A friend pointed me to this coin, curious about the condition. I took a look and attributed it; he decided to pass so I picked it up and it arrived today!
This is a really fun 1921-D IMO, there’s a lot going on!

Re: PCGS TrueView photos of my 1904-O VAM-35B
Nice coin! Welcome, and glad you're having fun with this little corner of the hobby! I was definitely more of a hoarder and date/mint collector for decades. It took me a while to get here, but enjoy this aspect of the hobby more than I ever have before. I appreciate that VAM hunting really refines ...
