    Appears closest to VAM 5 but the images are pretty poor:

    A good rule of thumb: Bad pictures, PASS.

    Maybe it's the bad pics but, that date looks funky to me. The numbers look too close and kind of fat. Again maybe from wear and/or bad pics.

    Second, as always, to "if @johnmilton posts it as a question, PASS." ;)

    Pass. Ugly images, and ugly coin.

    My rule of thumb.....
    If @Jack D. Young posits a question about a coin for sale, know for a fact he's already proven it to be one of China's finest.

    Not always! I often have my suspicions and look for opinions from a Group here.
