1891-CC HELP...

Post by fogie » Sat Feb 25, 2023 8:09 pm

I have recently obtained this wonderful little problem from a dear friend but neither of us know exactly what to call it . I currently have the whole set less the VAM-1 (probably does not really exist), VAM-5 & VAM-8. It is not a VAM-5 (near date). It sorta come close to the VAM-8 description but the gouged bow is not on the Discovery coin photos of the VAM-8. I see doubling on my CC that is not listed on the VAM-8 description but looking at the photo - I could be convinced that there is doubling on the VAM-8 discovery

I could be talked into the obverse being the same as VAM 8, but that reverse is likely new. Probably best to tag @tmanhg for a comparison to the VAM 8 discovery coin
often the crusher of hopes and dreams

I'm sorry I missed this post. Brent, I took some additional pics of the VAM 8 DC. The gouge is not present on my coin.
Here are the pics of the DC that are not on the page. If your coin doesn't match then I would agree with vampicker.
Obverse matches.

Perfect! Listing the gouged bow as VAM 8A tonight.
