98-S Vam 11?

Post by SilverToken » Mon May 29, 2023 7:45 pm

As there isn't many 98-S Vams to go through, I think this fits LVA's Vam 11... slanted near date, upright mm. Alas, no pic's

This coin has a tremendous amount of notable cracks that I don't find mentioned on other 98-S.

Obverse- Hair V, Field though hair beneath hair V, U though Cap, Hair though Liberty to U, Hair through R to denticle
Reverse U to Star, Right wing tip (diff from V-10) left wing to M

Take a look and post your thoughts

Looks like a near (and slightly slanted) date without a severe tilt to the mint mark (ruling out the VAM-10) so the only other option would be the VAM-11 based on descriptions.

Without proper pictures on the webpage it'll be difficult to nail down but I'd say you're most likely right.

It seems to fit to me as well although I admit I am more of a visual type person. I tried to find a V-11 already slabbed but did not find one. Those pics will def help the next person!
They must have taken my marbles away
