    Here's another Guess The VAM, that may be easy for the old VAMpires out there. I really thought it was pretty neat and the color was a topper for me.

    That is a cool VAM. Nice pick, I'll not disclose the number so others can enjoy the search.;)

    Hehehe... Probably a good thing you're not anywhere near me huh? I did not know that at the time I bought it. I just study them and if it interests me, I buy it. The heavy cracks and the break on the reverse just drew me in. The price was great and the color helped a lot. ;)

    Nope, that would be cool though. Keep going down the list. A hint the main pick up is at about 10 o'clock on the reverse, towards the rim.

    I dont think ive ever owned a 91o, ive considered buying a few but they were so weakly struck i ultimately passed.
    After looking over the vam listings i realized i should start flipping them over and inspecting them....
    u dirty dog

    I'm not into those VAM things, I'm sorry. It looks like it has a slight collar separation on the reverse, though. Another pretty pickup. You seem to be making a habit of that lately. :)

    Thanks, I don't set out to buy anything specific. I just buy what my eye and wallet like and can agree on. :)

    It's the first one I've bought. I have a few VAM's memorized, but anymore, I look at all Morgan's both obverse and reverse and just study them. Anything that sticks out as unusual or really cool, I end up buying and then VAM it when I get home.

    The color is nice and appears to be very market acceptable circulated toning. I have a similar 21. Gonna slab her?

    No, I don't think I will slab her. I will more than likely end up flipping her. I think she's about a 40 shot at a 45. She has some decent luster still left.

    Close but not quite on what I think it is? ;)

    Never mind, I think I figured out who your comment was aimed at. :D

    I will, in due time. Most of the VAM'ers that have chimed in, have hit the nail on the head without giving it away.
