roach Valued Member United States 364 Posts	Posted 05/05/2007 11:19 pm I have an 1878 8 TF Morgan that I cant figure out the VAM #. It has the A1c reverse for sure, but the obverse doesn't match any of the VAMs that go with the A1c. It has doubling or a chip under the eye-lash, a dot on the first 8, and a flake in the upper inside of the ear. Any ideas? I will post pictures if they are not too big. I guess there too big it wont upload. Report this Post to the Staff

roach Valued Member United States 364 Posts	Posted 05/08/2007 11:33 pm Finally figured it out. I suspected VAM 3 but could not find any pictures of the obverse. I went to e-bay and typed in 1878 VAM 3 morgan and sure enough there were a couple for sale/auction that were TPG graded. The dot on the 8 showed up in their picture as well as the eye-lash spike. Mystery solved! now if I can just get rid of this headache I have from staring at a coin under a magnifier for hours I'll be alright! Report this Post to the Staff

Might as well get used to it, if you're going to continue to buy Morgans. Report this Post to the Staff
