I picked this pair up today.

Coin #1

Petty typical for this date and mint, usual excellent, full strike, reflectivity of the fields relative to the devices likely qualifies it as semi-prooflike.

Coin #2

Similar to #1, with the reverse die looking to have been especially fresh and that side probably making prooflike.

For-Comparison,-1880-S-Morgan-Duo

For-Comparison,-1880-S-Morgan-Duo

The relevant point for the purpose of this post would be the mint mark on each. Coin #2's is quite a bit larger, making it I believe a VAM-2. I don't recall running across one of these oversized mint marks before, and am uncertain how {un}common they might be.

To be honest, these pics appear angled and washed out, and don't give any sense at all of what the coins actually look like.
