Jimbo48 Valued Member United States 254 Posts	Posted 02/06/2025 6:18 pm Yes I can see the V clearly. Good you got it graded. Does the weak VDB reduce the value as opposed to a stronger VDB? I know with the 1858/7 flying eagle, A strong and weak over date are denoted on slabs and the weak over date is significantly less valuable. Report this Post to the Staff

BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 02/08/2025 9:56 pm Does the prong in the holder cover the VDB? I hope not but if it does keep hi-res images of the VDB, actually just a V, on your phone and/or computer/tablet. If this piece was struck after mint employees attempted to remove the VBD from the dies I believe it could increase the value. Without that being noted on the label you might have a hard time convincing someone it was struck after the VDB in the dies was "removed". Either was it's very nice you have it certified. Congratulations! ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
