Die/VAM Matrix
VAM 15 - Doubled 1 is a pairing of Obverse Die 7 with Reverse Die a. Reverse Die a is used in many VAM pairings. Obverse Die 7 is only used with VAMs 14 and 41. As of May 2021 we have twenty-six examples of VAM 15 for examination. These range from Almost Uncirculated 53 to MS 64 and include several toned coins.
None of our examples show any die cracks, and with so much material to examine in the mint state area we feel confident that the dies did not fail. The distinctive way in which the 1 is doubled distinguishes this VAM even without die cracks.
Die cracks are shown in green and die breaks in red. Click on any image for a larger view.
