1889 v 23A Maybe????????????????

[morganman]

Well if my recent luck could get any better i will know tomorrow or Fri when she arrives
its a ms toner and displays all the PUP'S- Except the I in IN at neck is questionable so it
could be 40A2 but the total roughness at UNUM rim is there No clash rev as well

Makes one shiver a bit LOL Lets hope as i know a deserving member here who could
sure use one to further a set.

Chances are against 23A but fun to fantazize- if it is im a happy older member
Will follow up in any event with result

[CascadeChris]

Post a pic when it comes in either way. Let's see it!

[morganman]

PIC?? heck man, I cant even get e bay pics proper- so frustrating for me i simply quit
any new bay listings. mental block i guess
I should hire a gal with pic savvy- but im pretty lazy, as i dont need to sell
e bay uscoin*123 ck out my great pics= not lol
if its 23A- i will overnight to PCGS and pay 1 day grading fee etc
Its 2am & cant sleep- coin delivers today 7 /30 fingers crossed

[DHalladay]

Send it to me; I'll photograph the heck out of it!

[hairfield1]

yeah but will you return it???

[vampicker]

Good luck and never say never. Even if the best you can do is an image from a flatbed scanner like you used in your recent eBay listings, It should work for an actual VAM 23A. Drag and drop, just like this image file....

[morganman]

IM headed to post office in a couple hrs- lets hope---
Dennis H would return it or i would visit idaho with my cannon LOL

Funny thing= This raw coin is toned both sides in what looks authentic/original
Makes much tougher to attribute from pics. especially the I by neck
MY $50 pick sure has me excited but what are the chances??

Hope reality is not a JR crusher of dreams LOL
This sort of stuff makes it all a blast

I must say= I continue to look at thousands of coins and the work & hrs
involved are many. My point being that being a successful
anything involves work and dedication. After all that things seem
to drop into place more easily with much less resistance

Hope it turns out for ya! I may never get to own one of those, but I still like this one from the next year out of New Orleans.... 1890 o VAM 1B

Well here we go- Scott = 1889 23A dream crusher=
So ths toner has all the pup of 23a except no IN at neck I compared it to my ms62
and its confusing/I dont know what i have!!!!!
Not 40A1 or 2 not 19b1/2
OBV Clasing matches to a tee- roughness obv from PLU libs hair all the way to date
Counter clashed exactly like 23A
I searched for similiar 1889 vams withot neck letter transfer - havent found it yet???
Im baffled for now ANY PROS THAT COULD POINT IN RIGHT DIRECTION APPRECIATED

[78-sLongnock]

Well we need pics

[dave700x]

Could be a 7.

[CascadeChris]

Your 62 what?

[impairedsquirrel]

Your 62 what?

19B2

[Mhomei]

Go back to basics
1- date position
2-date doubling
3- reverse doubling
4- check the ear

Do those 4 things and you'll have your girl

[morganman]

Well one things for sure= 23A she is not - probally will send to ANACS for grade/attrib

DARN DARN

Too bad, I know a few of us that would pay $$$+.
Also, would be nice to have a few more found so more collectors could enjoy.
Keep up the hunt!
