I’m a bit confused on this one, it looks like one, but the break isn’t as bad. I would greatly appreciate your input, thank you!

Not a Vam 1H2
I looked for a minute but couldn't see a match, you need to post full coin photos of both sides when asking for Vam help.
Here is a link to the crack guide to help you match it up.

You may have an earlier die stage of the 1AS that @LanceNewmanOCC posted a link to.
Yours appears to have fewer cracks but you should be able to see if it matches some of the ones on your coin.
Edited to add: See if you can match up the scribbling die scratches.
I do have the scribbling.

Does it match exactly?
There are many with scribbles but they need to match exactly.

From what I saw it seems to be a newer VAM, does it fetch a premium?

The exact scribble lines?

No, there are many die cracks & scribbles on all of the 1921's
Yes, the scribbles need to match exactly and there are many different scribbles that can appear close.
Under a very close picture, the scribbles are the same. (Or close to)

Yes, they appear to match.
Looks like an EDS Vam 1AS
