Guess I need to get a sniping program- My hat's off to M4M on his kill this weekend!!!

Was going through a bunch of auctions and managed to place a bid on one approx 20 sec b4 close of auction but didn't go big enough. I will let M4M decide if he wants to post the winning coin. Let's just say that I have been kicking myself in the arse all weekend on it.


Congrats Mad4Morgans!!!!!!

  • Yeah, it was quite the battle for this one. I don't have a snipe program but put in a BIG "max bid" to keep you and member 21Obsession from getting this beauty!! image

    I'd post the reverse but it has a letter wore out on it. image

    If I only had a dollar for every VAM I have...err...nevermind...I do!! image

    How about letting us non-VAM folks in on it?
  • Yeah, I cherried it for $9.50. Beat those other guys by 50 cents.

    I would have bid more for it but it wasn't in an AGC holder like most of the rest of my high grade coins.

    CRAP!! I missed something??image

    R6 in 62?

    Could be about anything when it comes to 21D VAMs. I need more hints (but pictures will do) image

    I did talk to Rob and Messydesk about it some. Leroy doesn't attribute missing letters anymore because they are minting errors rather than die errors. But I think this may be "special" (at least to me) in a way because it might be a VAM-1Q EDS.

    See the enlargement below and here is a link to Rob' website showing the VAM-1Q and die break drawings.

    I won't know for sure until I recive the coin what it really looks like.
