1880 VAM 39 Wreath Gouge
Posted: Tue Nov 02, 2021 1:06 pm
I picked up a 1880-P VAM 39 with gouged wreath, but no clashes, in very nice uncirculated condition. It is not graded but should be I think 62 or 63. I think the 1a and 39 both are very interesting, while the unclashed 39 by itself is not on any list. It would get my vote for favorite VAM not on a list.
When I search I see almost no straight 39's, and zero uncirculated ones, but lots of 39a's. Not sure if they are more rare, or just no one cares about unclashed V39. Any idea of value? I would think more than stock 1880-P.
Attached are iphone pics taken through a flip - looks better in hand.
Thanks
