After blowing up your pic its still hard to tell if thats a hit on the cheek or what. The chatter as some call it in the fields doesn't really bother me. I go with 64 and a shot at 65.

I think 63 + is accurate based on your photos. As for the VAM, I'm thinking 1F or 36 based on the polished 8 and the "cootie" on the jaw.
I'm leaning towards 1F based on the mint mark.

I'm sticking with 63 as well, and definitely a Cootie Jaw. Dave, my view of the MM makes me trend Vam-36 for it, as I'm seeing a left tilt on the MM and the characteristic "crud" in the top loop of the S. I'm not 100% on it, though.

You are correct SD. I had it pegged as having the "crud" and apparently got crossed up between the 2 listings. I guess I had too many windows open at once.
