twohawks Pillar of the Community United States 1551 Posts	Posted 04/08/2010 01:23 am I have never seen a convext coin. The Vam-20 states con-caved. Not to ask a dumb question but here go's "concave would indicate something like a deep strike where from the rim to the relief it go's down? Report this Post to the Staff
aladinslamp Pillar of the Community United States 3076 Posts	Posted 04/08/2010 01:32 am check out 1878P VAM 14.4....this is a deep convexed coin,,,remember they had relief issues in 1878 which caused a lot of die breakage,,,hence the so many die marriages...1878-s says convex so it means there is a slight bowl like look when viewing from across the coin,rim to rim, not at the facing it like we take pictures...

twohawks Pillar of the Community United States 1551 Posts	Posted 04/08/2010 11:22 am Well it is not con caved, I just put it into a (maybe LVA submission slip) The obverse is right but the reverse has the mint mark placement problem. I found the 1884 cc vam-10 with a dash and took it to Leroy when I saw him. The Vam-10 has a doubled reverse motto. The Vam-9 it the dash type but the reverse has a different die, one that has (no doubling) on the motto. LVA needs to see a Vam-9 to up date and add this dash. I just found a Vam-9 (dash). So having a different reverse I am sure is not unheard of. I think I will test the waters on this one when I send in the 84 cc to him. Report this Post to the Staff
