<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SuperDave, post: 2531624, member: 1892&quot;]The polishing on the 1878-CC also appears on the EDS version of VAM-2A (which is what it is) at VAMworld. It&#039;s an interesting variety, with die chips on the nose and around the eye. It&#039;s acquired some skin (slang for the slightly clouded/toned surface) over the years, and only the fact it&#039;s a GSA coin would stop me from cracking it and removing that skin if it were in my hands. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>The &#039;85-CC is VAM-2 (VAM numbers start fresh with each issue) as well - note the dash under the 8 which is characteristic of the variety. I actually suspect the 1878 has the finer surfaces, under that skin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
