82cc: ms63. nice luster. obverse hair looks weakly stuck. 92cc: ms62. nice luster again with a little more chatter. much better date.
both very nice coins.

I'm at 62 on these, with the 82 slightly better, but not 63 better. Your '82 has a large die clash, most noticeable right of the eagle's right wing. There are other points this clash can be seen both in both sides, such as a line coming out of Liberty's neck. Use the die crack on the top of reverse to help you narrow down the VAM.

 with everyone saying 63. the 1882 is a weak strike.

Thank you all for the comments. I'm not quite sure on VAM indication for the 1882-CC, as I'm new to this. But it looks like potentially VAM-3D.

Great - but I suspect that was an easy one!
For the '92, I took a look but honestly I'm really not sure about that one.

The obverse die is a far date placement and the die crack from the 3rd to 4th left star matches both listings so it apparently boils down to the reverse die. I'm torn between VAM-8 and VAM-9.

I'm going to play the devils advocate here and ask the question why the 92-cc, if indeed an MS-63 and problem free coin, has not been graded by PCGS or NGC. We are talking about a $2k plus coin. 99% of the time, there is a reason for that, and it's not usually in the buyers favour. Not a big fan of the carbon spots either.
