Picked this up at a little shop while on a trip. It looked like the 1 had an overstamp or strike error. I don't know anything about 2 cent pieces and don't know values or VAM's, if any exist. It was worth the $15 chance. If nothing else it's been fun researching.

That's Re-Punched date FS-1304. Nice pick! The die crack on the one is a telltale sign. Zoom in on the date here and you can confirm it:

I don't think OPs coin has the same date placement of FS-1304. I only see a die crack on the date.

I believe this was the only die with that die crack, am I right? If not then it may be a different die.

Point of clarification .VAMs are associated only with Morgan and Peace dollars.

Thank you all. I have only collected mainly Morgan's (as apparent by SeatedNuts post) and am still fairly new to collecting. I hope all post replies are this friendly and helpful here unlike most of the other sites around the internet.

I never can figure out why so many must submit photos sideways. Nice coin.
