I've researched vamworld and can't find anything like it. The 8 has a tail on it. There are other peculiarities I couldn't find anything on the 1887's. What is the indention on the neck? It does not look like after mint damage. There are some other die cracks that are shown. I am very inexperienced but learning. Share with a rookie.


Wil load more pics when I figure out how to download them.

I have seen this before and I will go thought one of my boxes to see if I can find it. The VAM is not listed by this die chip if I remember right.

Well, I just looked at every 1887-P at VAMworld and came up empty-handed.

Looks like normal-far date, and clashed on the obverse, which should help narrow it down. Cant figure why that big chip on the 8 doesn't appear, though. Russ, you get more attention over there than I do - can you call their attention to the similarity between 14C and 1F? That identical die gouge is too cute to be two different coins.
The best thing about a bicycle is that it uses no gasoline, therefore the chance of fiery death is greatly reduced.

First Catman, then Gary Burke and now Bigg Fredd - there's one heck of a coin club in Heaven.

Might have figured you'd walk in here and nail it.

For VAMs that had full-face images, I was just scrolling down to look at the big pics. VAM-13's images are both EDS coins, and I never caught the crack details which show the similar 8.

See what you think, jgator44:

I just have this one dialed in. I did a die state progression study published in VamView about 4 years ago. It is just one that sticks in my mind. The small die break at the bottom left of the first 8 is a drop dead marker for the LDS of the V13. The MPD is weak at best, and gets mushed out on LDS.

Gotcha. I kinda figured that break would be a smoking gun for the right person - it's not exactly common - and the right person happened to see the thread.
