coffeecup57 Valued Member United States 146 Posts	Posted 08/30/2013 6:00 pm I recently bought a 1889CC,should be in next week,which will just leave me 3 to finish my Morgan "CC" set. Low grade with nothing special Anyway this gave me the itch to revue all my other "CC". While doing this is when I discovered this.It was bought as a regular "CC" about 7yrs ago.Still have receipt. I do not actively seek VAMs but do own the encyclopedia of Morgan and Peace dollars so I researched it and believe it to be a VAM3 capped die,but thought I would get some other opinions.There is doubling at top of "1" and"8". Couldn't get a good shot of it. To answer the most obvious question,if I am buying from a dealer I trust,have coin in hand,low grade and coin appeals to me I will buy coin without using a loop to examine it.Especially a coin this size.If we agree somewhat on the grade and it is $100 or less. ; Report this Post to the Staff

coffeecup57 Valued Member United States 146 Posts	Posted 08/30/2013 7:05 pm Mostly for the VAM.But looking for a second opinion on both.That's why I posted "?" by both. I think it will go a VG8/10 but that is one man's opinion and was looking for input from people who know Morgans better than I do. Sorry for the confusion. I also just noticed this probably belongs in the sub forum for VAMs.MY bad. regards coffeecup57 Edited by coffeecup57 08/30/2013 7:10 pm Report this Post to the Staff

SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 08/31/2013 12:22 pm VAM-3A, designated in 2012. You've a rather pricey little coin there; these bring a strong premium. Report this Post to the Staff
dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 08/31/2013 12:34 pm I believe you are correct with the VAM3A. I was going off not seeing the die gouges between the A and M and off the eagles' left wing. Had I read a little further, The fully filled G would have nailed it. Report this Post to the Staff
