AcesKings Pillar of the Community United States 1629 Posts	Posted 07/31/2023 3:43 pm Quote: Aces, for those of us unfamiliar with VAM categories, could you point out what the particular VAM for your coins refer to? Not really sure what you mean? EVERY Morgan should have a VAM associated with it. It's based on the pair of dies used for the coin. Kind of like with Overton or Sheldon die pairs. I can go back to VAM World and see what in the pair defined it as that particular pair, if that's what you mean? VAM 1F (Clashed Obverse n, Reverse M) Probably over dipped at one time. VAM 7 Dash under second 8 Report this Post to the Staff

As such, here's a hotlink to the True View. Steve https://www.PCGS.com/cert/50134122 EDIT: SEE Zurie's post of my True View four posts down! Thank you Zurie! See my private message. If possible, I'm hoping you can call me on Wednesday, and hold my hand as you teach me on my iPad how to do it. Thanks.

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 08/01/2023 12:10 am Sadly, I did not even know this thread had been started again. So I will just try to post going forward. 1885-O ( VAM 5) 1885-O (Tidy House #1, VAM 8) 1885-O (Tidy House #2, VNA) Both the Tidy House coins have their original holders, envelopes, and a brochure, but they would benefit from much better photographs to capture the toning, especially the electric blue reverse on the 2nd coin (TrueView would be nice if I get them to PCGS!)

Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5680 Posts	Posted 08/01/2023 01:45 am @Winesteven, I hope you don't mind, but your 1886 is too spectacular not to post directly here. So I resized the TrueView photo for you. Another gorgeous coin! Report this Post to the Staff

This is the "A" die state of VAM 6, double clashed 1886 ( VAM 6B) more bad photos. This is the "B" die state of the same VAM 6 above with multiple clashes.
