Have a look at VAM 32 die 1 and VAM32A. I think it lands in there somewhere.  |

Ok, I give up vamming. JK lol but if vamming (in hand) wasn't so fun and relaxing (most of the time) I'd just be sending you pics dave. If I'm The Blind Vammer... you're The Photo Vammer! You hit the nail on the head. It's a 32 die 1. BUT it is starting the crack for 32a so it's a transitional! So now we know the crack started at the berry and not the rim. Maybe it could be a good candidate for a VW page update? Anyway, here's the extent of the crack... Now that I think about it though, since there technically IS a crack does it qualify as a 32a?

Maybe have this moved to the VAM section to see what Messydesk has to say about it. And yeah, the blind VAMmer strikes again!  |

It looks like it is the VAM 32A die pair, but the die crack isn't advanced enough to qualify being called VAM 32A. I would call this VAM 32. Remember that cracks tend to grow gradually, although occasionally there are sudden, larger breaks that form. Kind of like chopping ice in your driveway. |

I so want Todd to take pictures of all my Washingtons and also my Morgans but I am not sure how much it would cost to do 100+ coins; if he's at Dallas in a couple weeks I will be there so that may be a chance.

I *think* he will be. I remember talking to him about dallas but not 100% on him saying he was going... If not, messydesk will be there (he's one heck of a coin photographer too) maybe if he checks back in he can let you know. That's a heck of a lot of coins though lol

Yeah, maybe just my slabbed Morgans, which is about 35-40 coins.

I will be in Dallas Thursday and Friday. I will be taking my photo gear with me, but I probably won't have time to do 100 coins at the show, as it takes a bit of time, especially if the holders are scratched and need polishing. 35-40 I could probably do there if I knew when to expect you. Send me a PM or e-mail if you want to discuss further.

Just did a quick count, 31 slabs, and 2 old Photo Certificates. You have private message/e-mail disabled on your profile but you can contact me if you wish and let me know how much it would be approximately. (I don't want to completely decimate my VAM & EAC budget!!) I will be there at early open on Thurs. to grab one of those ASE's and then also all day thurs & fri.

Awesome toning on that one, Cascade. It's as though the night is receding, giving way to sunlight.
