<p>[QUOTE="nesvt, post: 103479, member: 1749"]Usually I can link to the ashmore site for a comparison photo of the VAM. Unfortunately there isn't a picture of the VAM 1'o' on Ash's site. I have a photo in the VAM updates and it matches exactly. It's copyrighted, so I can't scan it and post. There are even later die states where the break over the "1" is slightly larger.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is a photo I took the same night under the same lighting. I'm not blaming it all on the conditions. My photo skills are poor (which leaves lots of room for improvement <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> ). This is a 22-D VAM 1D with a break at the Y in LIBERTY. Along with the small chunk, you can see the die broke and is pulling away from the rest of the coin. PCGS gave it an MS64 and the coin I posted above (the 1'o') looks even better in hand.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.gmavt.net/~nesvt/1922D_1D_1.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="http://www.gmavt.net/~nesvt/1922D_1D_2.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
