So here’s one that’s giving me fits. It seems to have elements of VAM 1c (clashing roll the right of the eagle) and vam6b (clashing below the n of “in god...” Any help would be appreciated!
Actually, it looks like there were two clashes. The pair of clashes between the righthand wreath and the eagle's left wing (viewer's right) are from the "Cap V". The pair of clashes (vertical lines) extending from the "n" of IGWT to the leading edge of the right wing (viewer's left) are from Liberty's neckline. Rarely will you find a VAM attributed for either of these, alone. Look for a letter transfer of the "n" below the clash which appears on the obverse at Liberty's neck. Letter transfers are usually attributable as a VAM. Perhaps @messydesk can give you better advice. ~ Chris
There’s also what appears to be a die crack at the wing under the t in IGWT this hat appears to begin on the other side of the wing. I haven’t seen any mention of that at VAMWorld.
Probably VAM 6A or 6B, depending on the stage of the clashes. I see this die pair more than any other. If mint records turn up showing one 1886 die pair having struck over 500,000 coins, this is it.
