Can't seem to match the Obverse from the VAMWorld Guide. Significant Die breaks over the M and E.

I have penciled in more minor die breaks that were not visible in the scan but can be seen under magnification.

Thoughts?

Why do you have to post this when I'm out?

Rule out 2B, and I'll look at it when I get home. Maybe.

there is some very interesting things going on, the 1921 coins are very challenging,,,and as for the die break chart on VW, I'm sure there are many more newer vams that have been found since its conception, and not posted in the chart, originally I had thought the reverse was very similar to VAM 1M but the obv is no where like that, , I believe as Your photo's show, there are many more cracks in your coin, such as the die crack in the wreath nest to america....Take some more close up photo's and find all of them you can and post them so we can figure it out. Maby Dave will be home by then....

we have some time and I an quite sure there are more craacks will quickly ID the VAM for those (DAVE) who really know 21's....take some general close ups of the face and bonnet, and the eagle and the wreaths...I am thinking there are more cracks, which are showing up in your close ups, and not your OBV and REV pics...in either case it will show just where they are and that should help out a lot...
