Yes. There are 44 different VAMs for that model, most of them having doubling in the date.

Heres some more pics.
Can you please help me identify the VAM.

Mike,
The coin pictured has a small o mint mark, this will narrow your search to a C3a reverse. The reverse doubling looks like classic machine doubling. Hope this helps.

It has a doubled 1 so that narrows it down to VAM 4, 10, 11,12, 18, 19, 23, 29, 32, 34, 36, 38, 39, 41, & 44.
The 1st & 2nd 8 is doubled so that narrows it down to VAM 4, 10, 12, 18, 19, 23, 29, 32, 34, 36, 38, 39, 41, & 44.
The 0 looks doubled @ top left outside so that leaves: VAM 12, 23, 32, 36, 38, & 41.
Need to break it down more. The 1 is doubled on the right side leaving VAM 12 which also has second 8 doubled at lower left outside of upper loop. 0 is doubled @ top left & top right outside & top left of opening.
So VAM 12 is the nearest match but don't write VAM 12 on the 2x2 holder cause I said so because I may not be seeing your scan right and there have been a thousand or so new VAM # added, deleted, upgraded & changed since the VAM book was printed although a quick reference on the relatively up to date vam site shows no major changes that may apply to a doubled date 80-O.

Gilbert is the board VAM man, he needs to verify all this.
