leej Valued Member Germany 59 Posts	Posted 09/16/2014 2:52 pm Hi folks, I'm finally back on after moving stateside from being overseas for just over 10 years. I'm focusing right now on the 8TF series and could use some correction where needed. First up is a VAM 16 if I have identified it correctly? Probably grade as MS62? Just trying to get the hang of all this Report this Post to the Staff

leej Valued Member Germany 59 Posts	Posted 09/16/2014 3:21 pm Liberty is doubled. Not sure this closeup is good enough. Report this Post to the Staff

leej Valued Member Germany 59 Posts	Posted 09/16/2014 3:30 pm Please let me know if additional photos are needed. I have 7 more to post after this one and 5 more in the mail so this should be fun Report this Post to the Staff
CherreePicker Valued Member 440 Posts	Posted 09/16/2014 5:36 pm VAM-16. You should also be able to see several die chips on the eagle's body where the right wing meets the body. The tripled stars are the key ID for this one. Reverse is also shared with V12 & 17. Report this Post to the Staff
leej Valued Member Germany 59 Posts	Posted 09/16/2014 5:52 pm Thanks CherreePicker for conforming it as a VAM 16. It helps to have a more trained eye in the mix. I will go ahead and post the next one I think I have identified as a VAM 18 in the morning. Report this Post to the Staff
