1878 long nock 7TF Vam help please

mcmxi

It is really hard to get a picture of this coin because it is so shiny. I am drawing a blank on this one. I was thinking VAM 82 what do you think?

I'm thinking VAM-80 maybe. Check to see if Liberty's cap fold is doubled.

VAM 80. Any die breaks on the reverse by the T in UNITED?

Oh well it wasn't what I thought it was. I made up for it with my other purchase today. At the time I thought all long nocks were 7/8tf and when i saw the cotton bolls doubled i didn't want to linger too long. But I hope $150 for the 1880-o Vam 4 and this one weren't too bad of a deal. Thanks for all the help!

That's still VAM 80. VAM 80A has a large die break hanging off the right side of the T, while yours is still in the die crack stage.

Hmmmm. I was not aware that the Long Nock variety was on coins other than the '78-S series. They're rare enough on that, how many 7 TF are known?

Long nock is on a number of the Philadelphia 1878. I think VAM 83 is the last one in the sequence.
