Help with a Vam, it's a Toner, and yes Krypto Likes it!!!!!

Oh I just love the thrill of the hunt....scouring Ebay for hours on end looking for that needle in a hay stack. A bad image of a good coin, or a BIN that's clearly too low......PCGS search, NGC searches, Anacs Search, Rainbow, Toned, Toning, ending soonest, newly listed.........they don't make a pill for this stuff image but its the thrill of victory when that big chance you took pays off when you open the mailbox........it makes the pain and burning in your eyes from hours of sqinting at your monitor all worth while. image

Then on top of that....when you get this pretty hunk of metal in your hand and run a high power loop over it and you spot something......something that looks different about this specimen.....a variety perhaps? image

Ok Vamers...take a peek and see if you agree with my attribution. It's easier for me as I have the coin in hand but the following description matches the coin perfectly so I am pretty sure this is the one! There is Doubling on both sides of the 1st 8 and then you can clearly see the doubled 1 and there is a dot in front of the left of the bottom crossbar etc

1884-O VAM-11 Doubled 18, O/O Right

1 doubled as dot to left of the bottom crossbar and at the top. First 8 doubled left of top loop and right of bottom.
