chuckster 125 Pillar of the Community United States 4113 Posts	Posted 07/20/2008 8:11 pm Need help with this one- is this a 1921S Vam15a- Clashed S? If that's not a clashed S by the Vee- what is it on my coin? My coin first, then VAM World Pic etc. Image: 21Sjpeg1.jpg 48.59 KB Image: 1921_S_VAM_15A_Clashed_s.jpg 58.99 KB Image: 21Sjpeg2.jpg 32.74 KB Image: 1921S_15A_1.jpg 74.91 KB Image: 21Sjpeg3.jpg 72.94 KB Image: 1921S_15A_2.jpg 80.48 KB Image: 21Sjpeg4.jpg 27.38 KB Report this Post to the Staff

I don't believe this is the 15A, just don't see the clash line under the neck. Your coin appears to have quite a bit of circulation and I think what you are seeing under the neck is just dings & scratches. The S in the hair vee should be incuse and in the shape of the S in trust. Yours looks raised, possibly a die gouge. Report this Post to the Staff
chuckster 125 Pillar of the Community United States 4113 Posts	Posted 07/21/2008 12:05 pm Thanks! Its definitely raised metal by the Vee. I'll see if I can try again to match it up with some other VAM's with die breaks, cracks,gouges etc, although not too successful with this one right now. Sometimes they just end up being normal.

SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 07/21/2008 5:50 pm A clash is a much more subtle feature than the crack your coin exhibits in the vee - sometimes you have to play with angle and light to get a clash to photograph at all. Interesting place for a die crack, though. Report this Post to the Staff
NGiles Pillar of the Community United States 527 Posts	Posted 07/24/2008 12:15 am I have been finding a lot of cracks in the same area lately, they usually extend through the hair and into the neck. You may want to check those areas as well. Report this Post to the Staff
