Thought I'd give this a bump and see if it gets any fresh input.
Is this clash in the field to the right of the eagle the telltale for VAM 1c? [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

Other than eliminating a lot of former Spanish colonies punch marks (& finding that Puerto Rico did use some early American coins with...
Some of the more common merchant punches are cataloged in the token guidebooks. But, to me, this seems almost like the revolutionary South...
Nothing screams counterfeit about those to me, but an induction test showing their silver content at 90% would be a stronger indicator. Few...
Sorry, the original picture was with a lo-res burner phone & hand loop (not the best way to obtain results, but what I had available with my...
Definitely not any scuz on the coin. At what point does a die chip become a different VAM? Also, the mintmark doesn't seem to correspond to any...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] I'm not seeing a VAM that corresponds to this 1886-S. Am I missing it? Or...

Ah. Clearrrrrrly. I have enough trouble making out the 26 characters I learned in grade school. Was totally at sea here. Thanks! The previous...
How about this one? Another billon tetradrachm? Similar reverse, with Otacilia Severa: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Wow. I wasn't even close! Good to learn that these have regnal years stamped on them. So, I don't need to focus so much on letter matches on the...
Yes, it appears to be a testing mark IMO Then again, there's a lot of chances to drop the coin on a sharp edge or drop a tool on it between the...
Not sure of this one. Possibly a Diobol from Alexandria (Egypt)? Milne 123a is the closest I could find (it shows Claudius on the obverse). It's...
Bump
Looking for any more info on this. Closest I found was a listing on the Wildwinds site that mentioned a mule with a reverse of Severys...
I have several similar pieces. How do you distinguish between the Constantine II AE3s & Constantius Chlorus (especially if the obverse legends are...
Separate names with a comma.
