i have been looking at the vams for the 1878-s and dont see any for this, look at the eagles right leg and look at the eagles beek. just bought it I will see it better when I get it but the leg and beek dont look like my other 1878-s coins

How does it feel to be related to Superman? From that picture, it takes nerves of steel to buy that coin. I'll wait till you receive it and post better photos to go any further.

Kevin, I don't mean the coin is bad or counterfeit. But that is one of the worst pictures I've seen. As to a new VAM, you definately have to show us better pictures than the one posted.

You snuck the obverse on while I was typing, looks great.

Kevin, I saw the leg, beak, bow ribbon and see how the I of in appears to be higher than the n. I believe some of these things are just caused by the bad picture. That's why I say when you receive it we need better pictures.

ok when I get it I will post better pictures, its comeing from main so it will be about a week before I get it. I tryed to enlarge the picture but could not. what I do is go to my text size and put in 200 and it makes the picture large to where I can see things alittle better.
