Let me get home, off my near-dead Droid, and see it on a big monitor. We'll see if we can attribute it to a known VAM first. |

Yeah, neat break Russ.
Does the crack come out on the lower side of either wing, or does it stop at the device?

Zee there light cracks into the wings but that is all. There is also other nice cracks on both sides but this is the near one.

(super neat coin though bud).... okay.... one fruit, ( but that is it).  |

A Horned O. On a 1900. And a Horned S. *Slap.* I haven't even looked into the known 1900 VAMs - wrong time of the night to get me into that - but my opinion hasn't changed. Get us a full-face reverse, let's try and VAM it from a known variety, and we'll go from there. |

Or not. You already posted this elsewhere; let them decide.

Yeah, it's early in the morning or late at night and I'm exhausted so I will throw some vams out there,
Zeewool, I think twohawks is messing with with you, this is not a 1900-O, in reality this is a 1921-D die crack. I'm really tired so I'm not going to fully attribute it.
it is one of these: 1921-D VAM-1V, 1921-D VAM-1M, or a 1921-D LDS VAM-1F
(the 1900 obverse is not the same coin as the reverse die break shown, twohawks is messing with around)
