Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 05/25/2011 5:27 pm I bought a pair of these. One is a PCGS MS61 and the other is a MS-62. I LOVE the doubled LIBERTY. My camera is down now, but I do have a shot of the MS-61 and some detailed shots. These were the first VAMs I ever bought. Once I started to look at the Morgan and Peace dollars I had, I found I had 12 more VAMs. I love to search for VAMs and show them to my wife. She's just getting into coins. The Nikon Camera Control Pro program really helps me search coins and check for VAMs. The Obverse of the 1878 7/8 TF VAM-38 The Reverse of the 1878 7/8 TF VAM-38 Doubling of LIBERTY on the VAM-38 show the largest spread of the VAMs. A look at the Doubled letters in E PLURIBUS and the Eyelid. Doubling of the Date on the VAM-38 The 7 over 8 Tail Feathers shows 5 strong tips. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff

Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 05/25/2011 10:39 pm that is exactly how I got started collecting VAM's myself. I first started on a date/mm set and just about had every coin in MS-64 except for 3 or 4 coins before I purchased my first coin labeled as a specific VAM (NGC MS-62 VAM-84). Once I started researching what the term VAM meant I started looking at my other coins and joined this site. I found I had a hand full of TOP100 VAM's already in my collection and a few HOT50's also. At that point and time I didn't quite grasp the concept that every Morgan and Peace dollar are a VAM of some type but this one purchase of this one specific VAM is what started it all for me Report this Post to the Staff
