I recently started buying some coins and came across what I believe to be a 1878 vam5. It has the dbl stars on the left, double date and extra small side feathers on the back along with double struck letters on the back. Is this a popular and valuable coin ?

Is the vam-18 a very rare or valuable ? Is it worth sending in to be graded?

VAM-18 is not one of the rare/ scare 8tf varieties and probably does not command premium over general 8tf pricing. The answer to your question regarding TPG grading comes down to your personal preference more than anything. I would want to be sure the coin would grade MS63 to be worth the grading investment however.

Thank you for the responses. Is there any way someone is willing to get a picture of it from me to give an opinion of the grade ?
Rest in Peace
