Benn looking at this one for a while now. Keep coming back to VAM-7, But I am doubtful on it.

I do believe it is an S/S reverse, and the 1st 8 in the date looks to be double like picture on VAMWorld.com. I don't see any of the other numbers in the date doubled though as well as the other marks that go with VAM-7

Anyways here are the usual pics. Any help would be appreciated.

1880-S-VAM-Help-Pleae.

No apparent Ear doubling
1880-S-VAM-Help-Pleae.

Is the "880" doubled? (Didn't noticed until I looked at preview)
1880-S-VAM-Help-Pleae.

1880-S-VAM-Help-Pleae.

S/S?
1880-S-VAM-Help-Pleae.

included next one. these are the only polishing marks I see on coin
1880-S-VAM-Help-Pleae.

Thanks for any and all help...Mont.

After looking at the date in my picture, I am thinking it could be VAM-19 Double "880" and S/S Tripled?

1880-S is a challenging issue to VAM if your coin is not a slam dunk over-date or RPMM. Hot spots and shadows form lighting can really add to the challenge of attributing from static photos. I'm not 100% positive, but I think you may have a VAM-38. Nice photos btw.
Rest in Peace
