Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6404 Posts	Posted Yesterday 8:46 pm I picked up this Morgan as a potential prize for an upcoming raffle for our coin club. Apparently this is how NGC adds VAM labeling to their newer holders. First time I've seen this. What do you think about this particular coin, and is this VAM of any special interest to specialists? It seems like its features are very subtle. Not a Top 100 or Hot 50, I presume! Report this Post to the Staff

First time I've seen this. varslab is separate from NGC. It's a third-party service that accepts already slabbed coins and adds the variety sticker to the back. Think of it like CAC stickering for varieties. I've used them before but their photos often leave much to be desired imo. Like what did they photograph for this one? You'd think the sextupled stars variety would have a photo of the sextupled stars. It does appear to be a minor variety: https://vamworld.com/wiki/1878-S_VAM-35 Edited by Tanman2001 Yesterday 8:57 pm Report this Post to the Staff
-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8855 Posts	Posted Yesterday 9:58 pm First of all, very nice looking Lady for a raffle win! If you want a good evaluation of your VAM, varslab is the best place in my opinion, John (messydesk on VAMWorld 2.0) and then there is also ANACS, if John (vampicker on VAMWorld 2.0) is still there. The other two sow called top dawgs of coin evaluation are not all that when it comes to VAMs, just sayin.... -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
