Other than the obvious ray through the "L", are there any other tell tale signs of this VAM?
I've had great transactions with people like: drwstr123, CCC2010, AlanLastufka, Type2, Justlooking, zas107, StrikeOutXXX, 10point, 66Tbird, and many more!

    Here is the exact VAM description...

    3 I 1 · Ac (Rays on Top of LL) I-4 R-7
    Reverse Ac– Two rays strengthened by an engraver in vicinity of LL in DOLLAR. This resulted in ray over horizontal bar and right top tip of left L and over lower left tip on right L instead of normal letters over rays. (Master die has evidence of engraver’s touch up with five engraving lines on top tail feather, short engraving lines on lower serifs of E in ONE and LLAR in DOLLAR, top serifs of UNITE ST-TE F AMERI E U-I-U LLA, and long curved engraving line on top right of D in UNITED.)
