SeatedNut Pillar of the Community United States 2797 Posts	Posted 04/21/2011 3:36 pm Not PMD. It's from the die. I can't access VamWorld but there are a couple of 1878-S Vams with this diagnostic. From memory you might check VAM 16 and 29. Report this Post to the Staff
General Tso Valued Member United States 341 Posts	Posted 04/21/2011 3:50 pm Funny, I'm currently trying to take pictures of a 1889-P that I think is a know VAM but I struggling with the camera. The 1887-S just looked odd to me. PS I know practically nothing of vams but having been trying reading up on the subject the last few days. Report this Post to the Staff
