Greetings all,
I am fascinated with the history of these coins, and have gathered quite a few from the wild, mostly ebay.
Have all the micro-o's EXCEPT the 1901 o VAM 42.
I've tried searching the CC Site, and find no results of any posts on this coin.
I'm wondering if any members have examples, and opinions as to why I have been unable to find one of my own.
Looking forward to hearing from anyone,
Thanks and good day, Herbie.

That VAM appears to be unobtanium. Only the discovery coin is listed in the SSDC census - a VF-20 details example, the plate coin.

Thanks Dave, I appreciate your info,
Odd that the others weren't too hard to find, relatively.
I should have looked for that info myself
I'm still going to keep my eyes on the bay,
I'll let you know if I score
Rest in Peace

I was intrigued by your mention of sdcc, I found the website,browsed the free newsletter, and discovered the meaning of your username, the main article is about the 1883o, well, The stages of Die Deterioration leading to the"Scarface" good stuff, for now I have my hands full with My privately minted issues, I'll probably pursue her familywhen I'm done.

I'm surprised no one mentioned that this VAM has an R7 rarity, meaning only a few tens of it were likely minted. Having seen that though, I understand why Dave700x calls it "unobtanium."
