Just wondering if VAM 3a or 3 includes the die break or clash seen on the obverse between the U and the bonnet? Are these scratches on th chin a deal breaker? Thanks

It's a 3A, and I'm not sure that's a clash in that area. Do you have the coin in hand? Could it be a shadow from a scratch on the case? The roller marks on the cheek shouldn't affect the grade, but it definitely affects eye appeal.

I dont have it in hand . It could be a bubble in the case but when I zoom in it looks like a raised bump. Not a gouge either .
