I have checked all the VAMS in VAM WORLD for this 1882-CC GSA but cannot find one that fits what I show on mine. It does not show the 1882 doubling but has a slight single clash leaves on the reverse, the two wing spikes although a little hard to see in the pics but very prominent under loop, and what appears to be some cap back break and a possible filled G in GOD. So any help would be appreciated.
Look through the VAM 3 series again. Yours should match one of those based on the gouges between the eagle's left wing and body.
I see no gouges between either wing and the body. So even without the double ear and date I can still say it's a VAM 3 variety?
The gouges are the two little spikes you circled in the 4th picture. It looks like you do have doubling on the 82.
Vam World helps. http://www.vamworld.com/file/view/RMR1882CC_Neck_Clash.jpg/47721779/RMR1882CC_Neck_Clash.jpg This may not be right page. Just a link to get Vam for date.
I was thinking other gouges but I will try to pin it down further. I'll look at the date closer too. Thanks.
