1886-P VAM-6A with Doubling?

Post by johnhenry9009 » Tue Mar 21, 2023 10:35 pm

I believe it may be an LDS of the VAM-6A because of the “mushy” details, there appears to be some doubling on PLURIBUS and UNUM. So the full coin photo will here and I will add more photos of the spots that I find interesting, I also can't get any close photos of the clash because it is not pronounced enough for my microscope to photograph it without the glare covering the clash.

From what I read and observe from the listings, this is a LDS Vam 6.

What you're seeing is called die fatigue or die deterioration doubling.
