Owner Comments:
1882 O/S VAM-5 EDS. In 1882 Three different New Orleans dies were prepared using dies originally created for San Francisco. The mint marks changed over the life of the striking, evolving so that more of the S crossbar showed. The EDS versions are much more rare and desirable than the late die states. In the picture of the mint mark for VAM-5 notice the EDS coin has only a hint of metal inside the top left of the O and the lower left of the O.
Formerly VAM-23 O/S Broken.
