bidaskbidask Posts: 14,057 ✭✭✭✭✭

How do you determine if the 1878 CC is a Vam 11 ( lines in wing) please describe.

Is this one below ?

Thank you,

Dan

    No it is not "lines in wing" VAM. Go to VAMworld.com and see what you really do have.

    Hint: look at the 4th star right of the date.

    Try to match the star as mentioned, also look at the mint mark & arrow nock.

    Here is the one in my collection that Todd photographed and did a great job on the close-up of the die gouge lines in the wings.

    Nothing right off from the photos. It looks like a short nock. Anything that helps narrow it down....date, mint mark placement, hub designs etc. There are a couple of listing with some sort of lines. Just wanted to mention other features to help get an exact match & narrow it down a bit. ;)
