Learning how to evaluate my collection of 25 years. Did my first visit to VAM World today and after spending much time comparing and zooming I think I may have here a VAM-27. Have included photos of what I believe are die gouges on wing, die chips on eyelid, forehead, and right of wheat leaves. Some significant scratches on her cheek and elsewhere I know will limit the grade and not sure if it has been cleaned or not. Btw, coin also passes on magnet, weight, and ping test. So looking to find out grade, VAM, authenticity. And possible value, not sure how rare VAM-27 is and do not see it listed on PCGS or NGC. Thanks in advance for your help!

Would like to see what this half cent would grade and to verify the variety. Crosslet with stems and I believe it might be a C-9.
I have included a second set of images slightly off angle for a different perspective. I know the deeper nick in the left field and ding on the left rim will affect the grade, but I think we got a good one! From a recently inherited old collection from our father and grandfather that included 8 half cents and 7 large cents. Thanks for your grading help and insights.

Has anyone seen this one before? The number 1 has a significant bend in it. Do you think this is a mint error of some kind or has it been damaged somehow? I do not see any tool marks so it looks like it may have been struck that way. Haven't seen any other examples online. It is from an old collection. Thank you.
