    Wow. Vams are tough. Each one is different, eh? They look so similar to me!

    I think you need a microscope to tell the difference between vams.

    Very nice fiery morgan wit da die cracks you have there!

    Yes they are. I have the wizard but I don't have a micrscope, I am going to buy a dino-lite today to help me magnify the parts better.

    Yes, it is VAM 3. I had the coin in hand a year ago, liked the coin but didn't like the Anaconda ransom. image I was tracking it at HA, but when it went past $1200, I said to myself again, fuggedaboudit.
