I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom I provide, then question the manner in which I provide it. I prefer you said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand to post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to!

I'm inclined to say it isn't VAM 6. There should be heavy remains of a repunched O to the left and below the existing mintmark. I see a small 'tail' coming out the bottom of the O, but I don't think it's enough.
What confuses matters is that there are a frightening number of O/O VAMs for this date. The best I can do is point you at this link at VAMworld and wish you luck looking at the pictures of all the possibilities.
John looks right about VAM 8.

VAM numbering is not linear across the Morgan series. Each date and mint mark starts at 1 and goes for as many different VAMs as are known. But each date and mint mark starts over at 1 again. So, every date and mint mark in the Morgans series has a VAM 1. But contrast, only a couple have a VAM 100.

I believe your correct. I found the die gouge in the bonnet fold along with the other markers. Does tis Vam garner any premiumn

Of the 5,000+ known VAMs, only a few hundred have any appreciable premium in any grade and many of those tend to be mdest in non-Mint State grades.
