From what I can tell I found me one. Opinions? Also I found a few other things that were never on the VAM. The lines in Liberty. The doubled M signature on rev. The object that's protruding by the eagles left wing and branch. The little eye in the eye. Also a object protruding by her hat. So let me know what you guys think. Also where do I send it for certification?           Edited by PileOfCoins

The mint mark location does not match VAM-4 (see the VAM-4 listing) The VAM-4A listing is apparently a mistake as noted by Vampicker (John Roberts) and is actually VAM-8A.

I've read all the vams for it. And he had mentioned it may not be legitimate and a documenting error. But VAM 8 does not call out the M under the nose the wing in the mouth or the S in the V. And if three of them are out there how is that possible? And here is a photo of VAM 4 mint mark and compared directly to mine I don't see how it's no match.   |

But I may be wrong.
I see how the second C is a little off. Which would make it a 8.

The reverse LCFP you've posted is from the VAM-4A listing. Look at the VAM-4 listing. There is a huge difference in mint mark placement.
When John Roberts says the VAM-4A listing is an error it very likely is. He completed the die study for this date/ mm and is one of the leading authorities on VAMs being the Director of Attribution Services for ANACS.

Ok. Thanks you guys.
Obviously I have much to learn and was overly excited I suppose.

Yep, I believe you were also informed that not every single detail will be listed for each VAM. If you look at any VAM you will find things on it that are not listed in the VAM description. As far as rarity, I'd say there's only 3 because it's a minor variety and not many people are going to be collecting it for the VAM. IMO. |

There is much to learn about VAMs. I've been at it for about 8 years now and I'm still learning. Welcome to the madness!!  |
