New Morgan VAM should I submit?

Thanks to everyone in community, all great advice, I am able to see very VERY slight letter transfer but Im still not so sure so the coin (as per advice) is on its way to JR at ANACS today. My First real post, first ANACS grade and first potentially a new VAM (fingers crossed lol) Thanks especially to @messydesk.

I don't think a third party grader can designate a new VAM. As far as I know it has to first be analysed by Leroy VanAllen, to accredit a new VAM. You should read the link regarding new varieties here, http://vamworld.com/wiki/Home

 

@messydesk please correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't ANACS follow the same procedure as you would regarding a new VAM? Before it can be attributed, you (or ANACS) would send it to LVA for authentication.

 

You could be right regarding the chain of events. I didn;t realise the a TPG would offer that service. I only knew that any new VAM attribution must first be confirmed by LVA and a VAM number issued to it.
Sorry if my previous post caused any confusion.

 

Both ANACS and I would tell the submitter to submit the coin to Leroy Van Allen and accompany it with a description of why. If he chooses to assign a new VAM number, we'll put it on the holder as a discovery piece if a copy of his letter is included.

 

Thanks for the clarification, John!
