Hopefully pictures are worth a thousand words. This is an 1891-P Morgan which I purchased just two days ago. Going through the list of all VAM&#039;s for this date and mintmark on Vamworld.com, I found that it has the small raised dot from a die chip as defined as a VAM-1A. However, upon further examination it also appears to have the doubled ear as defined by VAM-2.</p><p><br /></p><p>So what do I call this example? Given the choice I would say its a VAM-2, as it seems it is more desirable, yet it also has the attributes of VAM-1A.</p><p><br /></p><p>What what do you folks think?</p><p><br /></p><p>For the record, the dot is clearly a raised piece of metal on the coins surface, and is not just a bag mark or ding. I tried to adjust the lighting so the shadow produced makes this easier to see.</p><p><br /></p><p>The doubled ear is darn near identicle to the pictures on the vamworld website. </p><p><br /></p><p>I look forward to hearing your comments. Thanks in advance.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
