Love the die polishing lines. MS-65 either SPL or full PL, hard to tell from the scan. The upper loop of S makes it look like a VAM-3, obv. looks like a III-2 which should be correct for a VAM-3, but need a true VAM wizard to chime in on that.

I believe you have the correct reverse die paralyse, but it may be the obverse die of VAM-6 with the doubled zero in the date.

Yeah, I was looking at that but I couldn't see the 0 well enough to see if it's got the top doubling. That's the trouble with trying to VAM coins you can't look at under a stereoscope or 30x.

Agreed, especially dates like this one. There could be minor doubling on other digits which could make it maybe a VAM57.

No. They're die polishing lines.

MS66 with a real good chance of a PL designation. I've had MS66 that look worse from NGC.
