<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 596141, member: 13650&quot;]Thanks for that link.&nbsp; Very informative.&nbsp;&nbsp; I bookmarked it.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;In case anyone finds this thread someday and wonders what the approx. population is, this is what I came up with and how I came up with it.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; As of 5/24/09, they show 8 known VAMs.&nbsp;&nbsp; Most are pretty rare, all being between R-4 to R-7 on the rarity scale.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; VAM7 = R7&nbsp; (Few Tens)&nbsp; So I said approx.&nbsp; 50 </p><p>&nbsp; VAM7a= R7 (Few Tens)&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 50</p><p>&nbsp; VAM8 = R4/R5 (So I figured high end)&nbsp;&nbsp; 10,000</p><p>&nbsp; VAM8a= R6&nbsp; &nbsp; (Several hundred)&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 300</p><p>&nbsp; VAM9 = R7 (Few Tens)&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 50</p><p>&nbsp; VAM10= R4/R5&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 10,000</p><p>&nbsp; VAM11= R4&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 50,000</p><p>&nbsp; VAM12= R4/R5&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 10,000</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; --------</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Total: 80,450 approximately</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; Assuming that&#039;s all there were and all varieties have been found, that would be approximately the maximum of all O/CC&#039;s that ever &#039;existed&#039;.&nbsp;&nbsp; Not necessarily what remains today.&nbsp;&nbsp; Which, one could argue maybe 20-30% (maybe much more) were melted for Peace dollars with the rest, shipped over seas and/or lost over time.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;It&#039;s possible there could be less than 50k in existence today.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; That was the info I was looking for.&nbsp; I just wanted to know if the figure would be in the hundreds of thousands, or millions.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Most likely, there were less than 100k ever produced and maybe 50k remain today.&nbsp; Which means this could be an overlooked series.&nbsp;&nbsp; Especially the rarer VAMs.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; I&#039;ve got a new coin added to my list. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
