Hello, what do you think? I am leaning towards a VAM 2 but could just be seeing things also (not the first time).

Sorry about the pics. Can't get to get a good pic with it in the GSA case.

1884-CC-In-GSA...vam-2???

with these photo's its unlikely that it is VAM 2, however there are plenty of pictures that can attribute the VAM 2, your photo's are none of them...try to take some of same pictures as shown on Vamworld that can attest to your coin, or perhaps lead us what it really is...

try some full OBV and REV photo's, and closeups of MM and dates and Neck and or polishing lines you have, there are really very few vams for this year it should be a snap to figure it out...

Based on your pictures, I would call this VAM 2 as well.

not a lot of info on it. Below is the description from Vamworld. If it is I am leaning towards a LDS

OBV - 1 doubled above the upper point and above the lower crossbar
The first 8 doubled to left outside
Some coins show a die break across bottom of the digits
REV - First C doubled on the left inside

Here are pics next to each other...

Can't get a better close up of the MM.

No doubt about it! Good attribution on your part, (we were just confirming).

any idea of added value @ the MS60 to MS 62 range? How about it being in a GSA holder and being a VAM?

The VAM 2 is not listed in the VAMview guide. Consequently, it is not a sought after VAM. As for valuation, plus or minus around two hundred dollars.

Being in the original GSA holder helps.
