Undiscovered VAM or common occurrence?

The coveted and highly desirable separated laurel leaf variety and I can retire tomorrow?
Or absolutely nothing?

EDIT: I have another 1880-O with the same leaves just drifting out in the field, nearly touching the N in ONE.
I will find it it has to be around somewhere.

that features is on many vams. i do not know off-hand if having it on the 1880-o is a good thing or not

Quite common for those two leaves to be separated from the rest of the wreath. It's not considered when assigning a VAM number.

Look at the cluster above that set of leaves, the tip is separated as well which is common.

I'm more interested in that dot below the S in STATES and above the wing. What the heck is that?

I'd agree with that until OP can provide further information. About the leaves, that's just a result of the die wearing down
