Is that where the "teeth" from the edge are imprinted up on the rim?

Anyway, from the clash over the eagle's shoulder I was thinking 2BD or 2R2 but my coin doesn't have the die markers for either of those. It does have a polish mark above the top ray over the tail feather but it has less collar clashing than that one as mine doesn't extend under the mountains. 2DB = no, 2DC = no, 2DD = no. I have polish marks similar to 2DY but what about the doubled 1, 2, Y? What about the other clash marks and the doubled rock? This VAM stuff is tricky!

I agree srs77. Any opinion about which best fits this coin? I have to admit that I'm stumped but I'm really a rookie at this. I have three '22 Peace dollars that I bought a few months ago and am just now digging into the meat! What a gold mine of individuality for one coin type! I'm hooked! Next Peace dollar that I can afford is getting bought ha-ha! SsuperDdave, you were saying that the collar clash was going to be a later step in the attribution process but then never elaborated! Any more tips?

This one's a toughie, for me at least. Let me dig some as well.

If you look at the picture following my overlay, to the area I point out, you will see the area noted actually does have width. It actually is deeper than the fields.


I'm not sure we're actually communicating here. The gouge under DOLLAR does not appear in your pics below your overlay, and the fact that it has width proves it's not a clash.

A collar clash happens when, for whatever reason, the edge of the die comes into contact with the collar. The reeding on the collar impresses the edge of the die, and that's transferred onto coins subsequently struck. Like die cracks, collar clashes can wear off the die, so although what's there has to be a perfect match, it doesn't all have to be there.

We're operating at a serious deficiency to attribute this one because there are no full-face images; I can't even tell if it's a B1 or B2 reverse as a result. I'll assume it's a B2 reverse so we can include the 2D series as a possibility.

Another consideration is, the fact that this coin is clashed does not exclude the possibilities on VAMworld which aren't clashed. The fact that clashing isn't recorded for a given die pair could mean it hasn't been recorded yet. So this clashing may or may not be relevant to attribution.

Then again, the collar clash might not be recorded for the VAM yet, either.

Holy moly here's another clash I missed. Just below Liberty's bun is another concave surface. This coin has so much character!

Does this look like doubling of the R in trust?

After studying it closely, I think that what I originally believed to be doubling of the rock the eagle is standing on is actually a clash from the back side of the "B" in LIBERTY.

I honestly have no idea what any of the lingo is (other than DDO) for what I'm seeing here (which is why I'm here...to learn!), but it sure is a very interesting example with many things that you don't see everyday. My thanks to both you for posting numerous images & to SsDd's insightful comments.
Tremendous piece.

Just in case anyone else thinks it's a die gouge. This is from VAMworld. I guess it's not unreported ha-ha.

I've decided that due to the fact that this coin has similarities to a few different VAM's, and is exactly like none of them, that I'm just going to submit it to Leroy and let him chew on it.
