John has already seen photos of some of the over on VAMWorld and commented. The two from this group that I hope will holder in the grade I indicated are the 78-S VAM 59 (long nock) and the 80-O VAM 49 in MS61. Population reports for these two are low. I just have access to the PCGS pop report and the highest grade for a VAM 59 is AU53 (total 13) and MS63 for the VAM 49 there are 2 in MS 63, one in 62 and one in 60 (total 4 in UNC). The long nock had what I thought were polishing lines from an old cleaning, but when I put it under the microscope, the lines are raised (die polishing). Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 06/03/2010 09:17 am ANACS has 30 VAM-59's graded, Top Pop being two in AU55. At this point, frankly, they're the only place I'd send a VAM for grading. Report this Post to the Staff

zeewool Pillar of the Community 3660 Posts	Posted 07/03/2010 04:39 am JR doesn't grade VAMs Russ. I'm happy for you Dave. That 14.6 and the 32 must be awesome in hand. I rather think that ANACS may be the harshest of the TPGs with the orange labels. Blue and small holders seemed to be far more liberal and lenient. edited for speliong. SPELLING. edited again for the same thing. Edited by zeewool 07/03/2010 04:41 am Report this Post to the Staff
