1922-S Peace dollar question

Does anyone know if there is a VAM for the 22-S that features a die break in the rays on the reverse between and just to the right of the leaves?

Is it like this one.
I'm not sure if its a vam but i have a raw one just like it and it also has a clashed die above the eagles wing.

The raised, worm-like, marking you see is caused by clashed dies. The marking is the from the very top of Liberty's hair just below the R of LIBERTY, between the longest ray and the hairbun. On the coin, this is the deepest recess, making the highest peak of the die itself. This clashed die marking itself is not a VAM and does not bring a premium on the market. There are a number of clashed die VAMs in the 22-S series but none are identified by this marking.
