I'm trying to identify this variety, it looks like Vam 117, am I right? Tripled star, etc.. No real premium it looks like but a neat variety:

I'm assuming my attribution is right; I'm new to these.
All looks consistant with the 117. Although a Top 100, it's not exceedingly rare or sought after in that condition (approx 150 in ANACS database and 113 in PCGS). A dedicated VAMer might give it some extra love however.

Yes, VAM 117. While not super rare, it is more scarce than VAM 141, which has the same obverse. It is also more often found circulated than uncirculated, while VAM 141 is more often found uncirculated. Both are Top 100 coins, and there is a modest premium for both.
