<p>[QUOTE="mikem2000, post: 1472208, member: 30574"]Well, I am not certain, VAMs 14.5 and 7 share the same reverse with the die gouge, but I am going with VAM 7 for two reasons. The first is it looks to me like 14.5 picked up another die marker along the way. There appears to be a small bump (die recess) just to the left of the lower part of the A on 14.5 that does not appear on you special.</p><p><br /></p><p>The second reason is just elimination. VAM 14.5 is so rare there is only one known MS specimen. The coin in the post does not appear to be that 1 known specimen, so by eliminating that 1 coin you can make a leap and say it is not 14.5 so it is a VAM 7</p><p><br /></p><p>Mike[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
