Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 09/03/2006 12:48 pm its called a VAM-17, on the Reverse the "D" of DOLLAR is also doubled. If you look here you will see the same thing on my VAM17 that I thought may be a VAM17a https://goccf.com/t/7632 Edited by Bryan1315 09/03/2006 12:51 pm Report this Post to the Staff
stmpcol Valued Member United States 223 Posts	Posted 09/03/2006 2:43 pm Your right again Bryan. Never noticed the doubled D. Went to Raleigh yesterday and picked up a 16x loupe. Seeing things on these coins I never knew were there. Boy will I be happy when that book gets here. On to clash marks. When checking my 78cc on vamlink it showed a picture of looks like a mountian peak going from the eagles right wing up to the motto "in god we trust". My 78 with the large upper arrow feather has this same clash only it starts from the upper two set of leaves on the wreath and points to the eagles left wing. Is it possable to have the same clash in other places? Report this Post to the Staff
