This RichEsq1.

The die cracks with the stars looks exactly like the one Aladin reposted with his close up. The die crack connects the left stars and the right stars. My photo is on page 2. Alladin posted his close ups on page 3 to give us all a shot of what he thought I was talking about, and he's right.

Is the date also misplaced?

Is it common to have the stars cracked on two sides?

I don't know. I am new to this VAM stuff.

Would send a closer scan but not sure how to magnify it.

Is the date also misplaced?

RichEsq1, you do realize you've just completely hijacked someone else's thread, right? This is considered a major faux pas in online communities.

what you all haven't realized, is that I have shown you the 1887 series for VAM 19a/b...........
I see your almost agreeing.. but your forgetting the details/////
His pictures were at the beggining post...with only the questions.......and no pictures..........its a flop......any body's guess,
BUT the FACT IS this coin has the die break over the Phytgarian cap
sorry spelling..........and if you have this coin !!you have some MINOR INSIGHT..........Cant believe I'm waisting so much time.
when you haven't seen the break over the cap............ITS
VAM 19
ALL THE WAY....................but I am ADD............Add a DRink I'm not Disfucntional.......

Didn't mean to hijack, as I thought it was a general discussion on die cracks in 1887P's and I will be more than happy to delete postings.

Aladin, I had a coin dealer with knowledge of VAMs confirm today everything you said. He showed me where to look for the die breaks near the bonnet and you were right on point of everything. Thank you.
