    It's not that often that I get to a B&M dealer, as the closest dealer is in the next state with a four hour round trip drive. But, I made a trip on business with a dealer up there the other weekend. I picked a few Morgans off him. This one jumped out right at me! Interested to know if anyone can figure out what caught my attention on this one, and what you all think of the coin overall.

    Nice coin. Looks PL with only minor marks. The toning is decent too. Is it also a VAM?

    No, wasn't the toning. I'm more of a blast white kind of guy, though I do enjoy the eye catching toning.

    Yes, it does look PL, though I can also see why some would not attribute it such. The toning is not too overbearing, so much of the detail is sharp. Out of curiosity, do you think it's a VAM just to take a wild guess, or is there something specific about the 1882-S that makes you believe it's a VAM? And which one do you think it may be?
