Utilize this link to determine VAM. Scroll down to the 8 tailfeathers section and then cross reference with the VAMS that fit that 8 TF design. Easy one to ID. Have Fun with it.

There are 3 Vams with that reverse. You will have to determine which one with coin in hand or much larger full coin pics. V-12, 16, or 17. nlp

Before I wrote the first I looked at http://www.vamworld.com/1878-P-2012...bution_guide but now looking more carefully it seems to be the A1f reverse.
Thanks

Yes, A1f reverse. The three obverses are all quite distinctive, but also rather common.
