Is this an O over S with a worn die?
Thanks Joe

VAMming is simply the process of identifying the die that created a coin by examining the coin.
It can get a bit complicated considering die and/or coin wear.
And there are a few grey areas for healthy discussion, but it isn't as subjective as interpretive dance.
