Use the P in PLURIBUS to differentiate the VAM 167 from the 166. The “feet” are backwards. The right foot is basically normal and the left foot is doubled to the North. Also, there is little or no other doubling on the letter.LEARN THIS
The U in PLURIBUS on the VAM 167 can very easily be confused with the VAM 166. This is why properly attributing the P is vital.
The left foot of the R in PLURIBUS is doubled to the North and this is the way to distinguish this letter from the 166.
Provided the coin is of high enough grade, these die polish lines will significantly help to attribute the coin from all the other coins in the 160-188 range. There are no others with lines like this.
