1921-P VAM-3o (3 oh). This is an awesome VAM. $150
The VAM-3o coin shows evidence the dies of this variety had a very hard life! There is strong evidence of clashing and then significant die polishing to fix the clash damage.
Both the obverse and reverse show extensive die polishing lines as fine raised hairlines. Someone looking at the coin quickly might think it has been harshly cleaned, but it was not the coin that was scrubbed, it was the dies that produced it. The resulting lines on the coin are raised and not etched into the surface as true damage would be. Note the extensive polish around this eagle. This coin was graded MS-62 and encapsulated by PCGS, recognizing the hairline appearance is actually die polish. Make sure you scroll down to the close-ups!
One of the more interesting features of the VAM-3o is the small goldfish shaped clash mark (head facing down, tail pointing up) in front of Liberty's eye. Notice more die polish in an attempt to fix this damage.
