Some VAMs are more significant than others.

VAM number? Grade?

Looks like a VAM-23A. I'd say a solid MS-64.

I'd guess VAM-9G based on the far date and clash marks at Liberty's lip. Looks like a frosty 65 obverse, 64 reverse. Very appealing!
Rest in Peace

average strike for this year. definitely not in the MS65 range. if the luster is unbroken i'd put it in the 64 box otherwise MS63. I think its borderline and may squeeze a 64 grade

No comment on VAM, I've been going through my Morgan's all week and I'm all VAM'd out!

MS64 as far as I can tell

even if the luster is broken and they thought there was a fingerprint remnant obv at K1, I cant see it less than 63 so I agree with you. I've seen way worse MS63's
