Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 09/26/2018 8:04 pm I see that. What about the dot below the 1 in the date logo? Report this Post to the Staff

Actually I think that might just be from these (no offense) poor photos Report this Post to the Staff
dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 09/26/2018 9:09 pm It's a VAM-22. Is the reverse die rotated at all? http://www.vamworld.com/wiki/1878-CC_VAM-22 Report this Post to the Staff
BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 09/27/2018 12:15 am Quote: It's a VAM-22. Is the reverse die rotated at all? Yes, VAM-22 has die chips in CC. The coin looks good to me but we need accurate color images. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff

SilverDollar2017 Pillar of the Community United States 8715 Posts	Posted 09/27/2018 12:12 pm Photos that show the color accurately will help. Quote: the raised dots in the middle of the c's. they should be level with the actual coin, not raised to the height of the c's.. Actually, not a diagnostic of this being fake at all. VAM22 has these characteristic (die chips in the middle of the C's.) Edit: Never mind, I see dave700x and BH1964 beat me to it.

Paul Bulgerin Pillar of the Community United States 3098 Posts	Posted 09/29/2018 3:50 pm I am amazed at how much information some collectors have! That was an impressive ID on this coin, especially knowing about the dots in the CC. Paul Bulgerin Report this Post to the Staff
