This one appears to be fairly elusive. I don't clearly recall other examples but I had this on my desk today. Big chip in the left wreath and it seems like it's a different reverse than VAM 4 itself. Here's a few pictures.
On the obverse, there's the strong repunching on the 18, faint lines in the D shaped gap in the hair and a line in the upper Y. In this stage a little break has formed there too

Re: 1885-S VAM 4A
I believe that was the only 1885-S I did not have (based on discoveries to that point) when I had that huge VAM set.
