Glad you like the outcome, even if it took a while. That's one of the drawbacks of group grading submissions -- the early submitters have to wait for the late ones before they can start waiting for grading. The end result is a big win for that coin though. Congrats!

Nice! How's it feel to have a thousand dollar VAM

Glad I could help by pointing you in messy's direction

John, did they label it as DDR on their own? If so, why wouldn't they put vam-3 on the label and go with a generic DDR designation? My guess is because its so prominent but was in a bulk sub without being looked at by the VAM authenticators?
Rest in Peace

They added the DDR on their own, as it is a " Red Book Variety." A specific VAM number costs $18 per coin extra with PCGS, and it's not available at all with bulk submissions.
Rest in Peace

Thank you all for the kind words. It was a very fortunate accidental cherry-pick!
