dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 02/20/2021 10:24 am It is definitely the EDS VAM-1AB1 not sure if there is enough of a break to qualify for 1AB2 the actual extra hair listing.http://ec2-13-58-222-16.us-east-2.c...3-P_VAM-1AB1 http://ec2-13-58-222-16.us-east-2.c...3-P_VAM-1AB2 Report this Post to the Staff
Stephen-P Valued Member Japan 294 Posts	Posted 02/20/2021 11:23 am You're probably right about that, Dave. I was also wondering about the clashing going on with this piece. If it's the earlier die state, why wouldn't the clashing be visible on the 1AB, the supposed later die stage of this coin? Report this Post to the Staff
dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 02/20/2021 11:53 am I'm really not seeing the usual signs of a clash event on this coin. Typically there is a good transfer of the neck line off the eagles' right shoulder so if it is clashed the light remnants could have worn off the dies from normal use. Report this Post to the Staff
Stephen-P Valued Member Japan 294 Posts	Posted 02/20/2021 1:05 pm There are two incused worms, one above the O in DOLLAR and one between the leaves. There is also a tiny one tucked under the Liberty's chin line where the neck meets. A less prominent one going above the eagle's tail feathers hard to see from this picture. I guess the dies get hammered so much after the initial clash that they won't be visible during the formation of 1AB's "extra hair"? Report this Post to the Staff
Stephen-P Valued Member Japan 294 Posts	Posted 02/20/2021 1:10 pm I find that hard to believe because the die cracks and bevelled edge known to this VAM aren't really altered at all. Report this Post to the Staff
