<p>[QUOTE="messydesk, post: 2598472, member: 1765"]83-CC VAM 5 is a bit of a "hot mess." The difference between 5C and 5D is the single vs. triple clash. The description of 5D says, "... and, <b>on LDS specimens</b>, die break rear of Phrygian cap below ribbon." I've probably tripped over this wording before with a coin like yours. Earlier die states of VAM 5D don't have the break, just the 3 clashes. In my opinion the break should be separate (with break would be 5E), but that's not the way it is now.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
