Just picked this up for a great price and wanted to share it here for views and comments. It is certainly a longshot, but I was curious about and VAM variations: 1878-CC VAM 6 Doubled Leaves and Ear. CC Mintmark Almost Touches Wreath 1878-CC VAM 11 Lines on Eagle’s Wing 1878-CC VAM 24/24A Doubled Leaves No Ear Doubling Thanks all.
1st very very nice pickup. I'd jump in on the vam but to be honest I haven't even figured out the vam for my 78cc yet.. what can I say I'm lazy
The NGC images are below and may help VAM it. Not my area of expertise by a long shot. But a really nice coin. Cal
That is a MUCH better photo! Solid pickup! Congrats! Nice. VAM? They make my head hurt. If it's not obvious and I'm curious enough, I'll send to VSS unless it's raw and want it graded. They will label the reverse of a coin already slabbed.
Mature? We can't have a little fun without you taking things the wrong way? I think a thicker skin was mentioned earlier. It wasn't really needed. Just to take things in the spirit intended and have a laugh or two. If one gets their knickers up in a bunch on such a trivial matter then one is taking himself a tad too serious....
