Thanks guys! I tried find something that could tell me which VAM's were common, or at least a ranking of em, to no avail! I hate someone shot my eagle with, what looks like bean bag rounds, in the chest! Likely, why the paw in law gave to me in the first place! Bet he wouldn't have, had he known about the VAM, but I don't plan on selling regardless! Then again, I didn't know either, until entering this forum and it's plethora of knowledge! Thanks CCF!

There's not really a list per se, other than the top 50 or 100. These can change with rarity and interest over the years.

To sum it up: How rare or how common a VAM is is notated by the rarity scale. How much of a premium a VAM carries is a combination of rarity and collector interest. There are VAMs that are more rare than some listed on the top 100, but if collector interest is low, premiums are low.

Rarity and collector interest is listed direct below the VAM listing in VAMWorld. Here's a screenshot of each. I'd check out the link below to get an overview of attributing VAMs

Also keep in mind most if not all rarity and interest levels were the best guess by Leroy Van Allen at the time of discovery. A few VAMs have an adjusted rarity level in parenthesis after the original (LVA) rarity based on the SSDC populations.
