Got Vam's? are any of these worth premiums?

I bought a bunch of circulated morgans a while back and since I had a lot of time today not going to shows, I decided to check for vam's.... Guess I got a little lucky today.





We will start this off with a minor 1897-O neardate vam6:

Here is a 1902-S doubled olive but I can't figure out the vam:

    Very nice finds. I think your 1899-O VAM-4 is actually 32, which is much scarcer (and commands more premium). You can compare with the drawing Here.

    The doubled olive on the 1902-S I believe is very common after 1901 or so. It was a C3/C4 hub issue.

    Thank you for the update!!! I was going against the latest ver of comprehensive catalog and encyclopedia of morgan and peace dollars. I will have to look up the 32.

  • This thread is just about good enough to get me to take some pics of some of the stuff I've recently found. One is an 1879 "Worm Eye." The first I've ever seen.

    I've got 2 of those VAM 2's in unc, are they worth more than the $25.00 I paid for each of them?

  • great finds!!! agree that the 1886 o is sweet with the e and partial b. wish now that I didnt give most of my raw collection to my nephew in Florida to get him started. Oh well he can have the fun of going through them.

    Thanks guys! I am still trying to find out, what is the difference in the 99 vam 4 and the 32? I haven't found a clear enough shot of both errors to tell the difference.
