Confirm that it's the "three mountain, attached olive branch" reverse (can't tell for sure from your reverse image) and you're looking at one of the rarer 1922 VAMs.

Thanks again SsuperDdave for the confirmation. I think it's a keeper  It maybe grades out at xf+, but I will add it to my slowly increasing VAM collection. and...to think I did not know what a VAM was before joining CCF,lol. I am a slow learner but have plenty of time.

VAM-8 is defined by the doubling shown in RK55's images - the rays of the tiara, the D, W, E and T in "IN GOD WE TRVST," and the horizontal bar of the L in LIBERTY. Your coin would need to have the identical features to be a VAM-8.

Then it's a VAM-8.  You can expect it to carry a pretty substantial price premium over a lesser variety of 1922.

I 'm not looking to sell but am curious to it's value. My grandfather gave me a 1885 Morgan on day I was born and the Peace dollar on my first birthday and I'm 56 years old. My grandfather collected coins and Indian artifacts . My coin is I believe in slightly better condition than the one in thread . Both coins have been put away my entire life and I get them out and look at them now and then
