daveyn Valued Member United States 160 Posts	Posted 08/13/2007 3:45 pm It does look like doubling in the date, but I also see some marks of some sort above the eagles head, hard to tell. Later, Report this Post to the Staff
Bonedigger Pillar of the Community United States 1267 Posts	Posted 08/13/2007 4:29 pm Here are a couple of close-ups which may be able to assist in determining which VAM the coin is. Plerase forgive my pics, the camer is an older handheld (Sony MVC-FD91, with the 3.5" disk) and a handmade macro lens. It is a little shakey LOL... Report this Post to the Staff

Particularly, an O/O overstrike with a curved, almost s-shaped line inside the mint mark. This one is sometimes referred to as an O/CC because of that shape. It's visible in Bonedigger's detail pic. Additionally, the date is "far," exactly 3 full denticles from the point of the neck. It's a Hot-50 VAM. Report this Post to the Staff
