VAM ID Help....1888-O Multiple clashed letters.

Oney

I bought this coin today at a not so local shop. Its an 1888-O clashed morgan. All three letters: n,s,t show as clashed. Anyone have any idea of the variety. I can not seem to find it at ashmore or my large reference book. Thanks.

Your image of the hair vee looks like the VAM 1C pictured in the December 2003 supplemental update.

I agree. Looks like a VAM-1C.

Thanks, any premium on this coin and will PCGS designate the 1C?

It's on SuperCD list. VAM Pricing Guide shows it at $150 for MS63, $200 for MS64, and $725 for MS65.
Last I checked, it's not on the PCGS list.

Nice find by the way!!

Updated: I see it marked "SUPER CD" on the price guide, but I don't see it in Mark's book.

Man I love you guys, this post got me to looking at my 1888-0 and lo and behold its a VAM, 1D pitted obverse.
