I'll remove clashing from consideration based on personal observation, southsav, which is OK because clashing should not be a smoking-gun attribute for any variety.
For the rest, I guess it's time to get out the microscope. It'll probably be tomorrow evening before the next details.

OK, I've been up and down the D2 varieties on the VAM website and I am stumped. There must be way more varieties than there were dies. This has got to be one of the toughest date/mint marks to attribute. Is there any way to sort out the BS varieties?

I'm probably wrong, but letters look off to me.

OK, I'm gonna go ahead and smack myself in the forehead, hard, here. I've just discovered, through my own inattentiveness, that I received a T-mount adapter instead of the C-mount adapter I required for the Leica. I'm therefore unable to use the MZ7 until I get the right adapter.
So, for the moment, we'll see what we can do for magnification with another lens I've not revealed yet....

I enjoy this idea too. VAMming seems incredibly difficult for some of us (ok, me), just because of the vast amount of information available.
