1878 7TF VAM help needed - - -

The VAM 187 has an unusual and distinctive doubled R (in PLURIBUS). Are there any other VAMs that have this same doubled R?
Here is why I ask - - I have a 1878 7TF Morgan that was labeled VAM 187 (incorrectly) in a SEGS holder. It has the strongly doubled R (in PLURIBUS), but it does NOT have the B2c reverse of a VAM 187. The obverse is a Type II, and the reverse is a B2a (i.e. short nock with a closed"o"). I can't find anything in the VAM book that matches these characteristics. Any ideas??

Those are not Type II obverses.

I have a VAM-187 in MS62 in my set. The 'r' in 'trust' is broken. Other possibilities are VAM-123, 111, and 114. Can you share a photo?
The 1878-S VAM-22 also looks like a polished down version of VAM-187, however I've analyzed this to death and the obverses are different.

I apologize if my reply was received as confrontational, as that was not intended.

<< <i>I would say VAM-133 based on those limited images. >>
I would concur.
