Any input on the grade and any VAM info for this coin?

Not many varieties in the series. This should help you narrow it down ;)

I was thinking it is 19.2 but I'm a little concerned about the grade and I've never crammed a coin before

I would never venture to VAM a coin with pictures that are missing all the meat and potatoes of detail in its pictures and over lighting..better to tell them to get a better picture than to guess with pics like this...

This came back as a MS62. I also paid to have it attributed, but it was given no attribution. While I believe my grading skills to be ok, I only have enough VAM knowledge to make me a dangerous newb. Can anyone explain if this means it does not have a VAM or I potentially did not submit it correct? They did charge me for the attribution..

The VAM catalog is every discernibly unique die marriage. Most collectors aren't interested in them all, and many are very difficult to attribute. PCGS will attribute a subset of the VAMs in the catalog -- those on collectible lists like the Top 100, or thoroughly researched dates for which a guide is available and there is market demand, like all the 1878 8TF varieties. The only 78-CC varieties they'll attribute are VAMs 6, 11, 18, and 24. Yours is not one of them. Only ANACS and I will attribute all of them.
