Great Thread Jello,
Inspired me to dig one out of the safe this morning and do some quick shots
before the day starts. Not sure what VAM yet. It is August vacation.
Will try to figure it out this winter.
The Doubling in "LIBERTY" is definitely hard to show in a photo.
took a whole bunch of shots to get some of it.

1878-S maybe a Vam#8/ link below or 50 that in the semi Vol#4 new Cherrypicker guide?

Check the edge of the coin carefully. I believe you will find evidence that the coin was dinged or flattened which causes the Cud effect. I have this on my S-89 Liberty Cap Cent and I had already contacted Bob Grellman before I realized it wasn't a CUD.

 

Yup graded MS-63 by PCGS//..old green holder

 

That was the first thing I checked, and there is no damage to the edge. No, the way I see it, the only way that the wear pattern could leave an arc visibly projected into the field is if there was originally a cud in that spot.

1885-O w/known Vam yet


1881-S rev is wrong

 

1885-O w/known Vam yet


Pcgs MS-63

 

The coin looks like a cud over TAT with the wear encroaching into the field, but the next shot shows the damage. Your coin shows a flat spot that is similar. When the damage is done prior to wear, it is very misleading.

 

Jello You are the Man !!
Thank You Very Much

New addition to my collection 1885-O

 

Whiz, is it a "No Line Fatty"?

Hi Chris It's an early NGC slab before they (TPG) started using bar codes on there slabs.
I'll post a picture of the slab when they coin arrives.
Thanks for the question as I'm sure there are others that would like to know.
Regards DWhiz

I have an 1890 CC Tailbar...it needs to be authenticated and what not...hopefully will do that when it's officially a part of my collection...photographs then too...

 

Here is one that my dad passed on to me, I know it is not in the best of shape, but I am keeping it.

 

Here's my raw 81 cc. I think it has some proof like qualities, although not sure it would grade PL/DMPL.
