I examined a few of my (junk silver) morgans today and I found this 1891-O with the die clashed E. It is heavily worn and harshly cleaned but I was still excited to find my first cherrypick of my own mediocre collection.  I also have this 1882-S that shows some possible doubling of the date, What does everyone else think? Is it die doubled or just machine doubled?   |

The best kind of cherry-picking...I've found a few coins recently too.  |

Be very careful Jon, Vamming can also be very addictive.

I found a 1934-D Peace dollar VAM in my collection this morning. I dont remember the VAM number but it's the doubled die obverse varitey. It would probably only grade VF-30 or so but I was excited to find it. |

G'Day all,JON nearly all of my VAM's were just coins that I brought for the year slabbed or raw not knowing that they were VAM's, what a nice surprise when they turn out to be VAM's and some are in the top 100,50 or even top 40 addictive very much so  regards Harry |
