VAM 53 Dies

VAM 53 - Doubled 18, Pitted Ear is a pairing of Obverse Die 34 with a Reverse Die a.  As of June 2021 we have seventy-five examples of VAM 53, and while about one third of them are circulated, most are Mint State coins.  Our examples range from Very Good 08 to Mint State 65.  Many of the Mint State coins show the same die cracks, and it is the reverse that is most distinctive.

 

This example, a Mint State 64, is representative of the group and has been chosen because of the contract in the fields which helps with recognition of the die cracks.

 

Die cracks are shown in green and die breaks in red.  Click on any image for a larger view.
