1921-Ps back from LVA

Post by DHalladay » Fri Jul 17, 2020 4:32 pm

Sent a batch of nine 1921-Ps in December (including reference pieces). LVA's letter shared so much that he and Marilyn have been going through these past 7 months (not just covid-19) that it makes my heart ache for them. :(

Two VAMs were killed. Ironically, both were my "discoveries". :lol:
– VAM 102 was confirmed to be a duplicate of VAM 21, so was killed.
– VAM 118 was confirmed to be an LDS of VAM 40A, so was killed.

Two coins were deemed "not enough", and thus go back into my "What Are These?" box.

There was one new discovery: VAM 3A1C. Here are my photo details:

Many thanks to Kissov for pointing out the VAM duplications that resulted in 102 and 118 being killed, and to Algot for lending his VAM 21 that had previously been attributed by LVA. :D

Dennis, congrats on your new DC. Can you upload LVA's letter so I can create the new page?

Happy Dance indeed.
2 kills + 1 new discovery = 1 net less coin in the SSDC 1921-P date set. :D

Congrats on the revisions, additions and corrections, Dennis!

Regarding the "not enough" examples, did LVA just call those VAM 1 / 3?
Was one of those the one that you posted about a while ago, with the break through the N in ONE?

Both are D2 coins. Strangely, he didn't call them VAM 3s. Here's the first:

Not any of the new discovery, just 2 of the 3A1B revision that I don't understand the need for at all.

Thanks for sharing, and congratulations. I hope this is an indication that Leroy and Marilyn are doing better.
I've been reluctant to send anything for a while.

Great to hear more news from Leroy on VAM listings! Wonderful to see two kills, one DC, and a revision on
the 1921 P series. Good work Dennis!

Here are 5 images that could/should go on the new 3A1C page (with these descriptions):


VAM 3A1c does have a gouge from the left wreath to the left star:
