Very Interesting similarity between the two coins. Yes, I knew I was up against a bigger opponent so I started eliminating what it was not. I could not come up with anything but thought maybe it was late die state of some other VAM. But it lead me no where.
16 Berry, no rusted dies,no scribbling scribbles (lol) no obverse hints, just the unusual strike at"dollar" and the lamination. I did not think it was struck through either, but I put it down for another day.
I will keep it aside. if you need any other photo's let me know. I may go over the coin again when my eyes get uncrossed.
Thanks for the reply.
edit- the denticles looked doubled or more at the rim along the bottom. It may be hard to see in my photo, but not in hand.
