Fender79 Valued Member United States 251 Posts	Posted 08/13/2019 2:48 pm There appears to be an extra ray to right of eagle's head and above right wing. Its also going in the wrong direction. Is this standard for 1923? * Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

GMS5 Pillar of the Community Canada 1532 Posts	Posted 08/13/2019 3:12 pm Could be VAM-1E1 Very Widely Spaced Double Clash Spike Eagle's Shoulder, or VAM-1I Die Break UNIT, Widely Spaced Double Spikes Eagle's Shoulder, or VAM-1K Double Clash Spike Eagle's Shoulder, or Double Clash Spikes Eagle's Shoulder, Die File Lines Obverse. Either way, it's a clash. Is it possible to show both sides of the coin and a detailed shot of the shoulder spike(s)? Report this Post to the Staff
demelone Valued Member United States 137 Posts	Posted 08/13/2019 3:13 pm I see the ray above the wing, but not the one to the right of the eagle's head. We need a close up of both areas to be able to see what it really is. Report this Post to the Staff
moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 08/13/2019 3:29 pm Die clash seems very likely. Close ups of those two areas would be helpful. I'm leaning toward the 1E1. Report this Post to the Staff

Fender79 Valued Member United States 251 Posts	Posted 08/13/2019 8:42 pm Since I'm at it do you guys think this is a die break in the bottom rays running horizontal to right of the branch? Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 08/14/2019 11:44 am I was thinking either a die gouge or a die clash, it lines up nicely as a clash from the back of the neck. Report this Post to the Staff
