kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 4233 Posts	Posted 03/25/2023 12:20 pm It does look like a repunch but I'm not sure what's going on there - I quickly found four or five of them like that on Heritage, for example this one https://coins.ha.com/itm/liberty-do...bnail-071515 You'll need a free login to see the larger images though. Seems like it's fairly common. Report this Post to the Staff
Chute72 Pillar of the Community United States 1314 Posts	Posted 03/26/2023 05:34 am Thanks kbbpll, I see a strong similarity. Though the link you provided appears to show an earlier die state. This leads me to ask if there is a repository of these variations in much the same way VAM coins for Morgan and Peace dollars. Thanks again. Report this Post to the Staff
kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 4233 Posts	Posted 03/26/2023 1:02 pm Yes, there's more going on under the 8 on some of them, so probably die state. I'm not a gold person so I don't know of any variety references. There's a VP-001 1898/1898 S listed on NGC but it has obvious doubling under the 1, which yours and the ones I saw on HA do not have.
