1881 S PCGSMS67 WOW VAM 1B

I had seen this 1881 S in a PCGSMS67 slab and won it.
I didn't have any MS67 Morgan's and bid on it for that reason a long while back.
The seller's pictures didn't show the die chip on the wing and I was VERY HAPPY,
when I got it 'in hand' and saw the very cool die chip, on the wing.
Here are some pictures.
Enjoy, Bert

    THANK YOU!
    I had help attributing it on the old Vamworld, a long time ago and at that time I was told, that it might be
    the top graded Morgan, for that vam.
    I think they called it a TOP POP.
    Does anyone know if someone has found an equally or higher graded 1881 S VAM 1B?
    Thank You, Bert

    there's not VAM population report that i know of. this would have to be dome by word of mouth.

    The SSDC has it's own registry for Morgan/Peace VAMs which could be used for POPs but you have to be a member to access it.
