I think I'm getting addicted. I've been dying for the last two days for this thing to come in the mail so I could play!

No doubled cotton bolls  . Still wanna see the chin? I can get the pics up if you want, she has a clash coming off her neckline, too. Edited by Scooby Due

Another question, if I may.
On VAMWorld under VAM33, they show recent sales of $100-129 (Jan 2010), and list it as an I-3,R-4.
There are no sales listed for VAM33A and they have it as an I-3,R-6. Does that imply a higher value?

Thanks Super Dave! I keep forgetting that whole supply/demand thing! LOL!
Are the stars in front of her face doubled, too? Looks like it to me. Just curious why they would list the 2 to the right of date as a marker, which seem weaker, and not these.

That's a good question. On the example I have images of, the two stars closest to the "E" are just as strikingly doubled as the ones to the right of the date. |

It looks to me like there is stronger doubling on those than the ones to the right of the date. What about the "E"? Is that doubled?  |

those stars are not strike doubled, but most likely not listed as the other main features are what make it a VAM 33A, VAM world has a history of not listing every detail, but rather the main features which attribute the VAM.. |

Thanks aladin, what about the "E"? Does that look doubled? It's a little beat up, so I'm not really sure.

Here's the E from one which passed through my collection - it was an NGC MS63 with a rather mushy strike:  The doubling of all 3 pictured features is fairly obvious, even with the poor strike. |

as usual. the VAM World Pictures HIGHLITE the main features which IDENTIFY a VAM, many times we see other things which are not listed in the description, leading us all into a frenzy of questions...Mine has this and that......one must remember (generally) the die is the die, so when the main points are known, the VAM is ID-ed...however many a VAM is decided by the smallest pimple on the butt. as we all know....and thats why we ask...... |
