Wow - very nice! I have deliberately not looked into collecting large cents b/c the fascinate me and I have too many other directions I am already going (and not just in coins!) I have two more books in the works for the following hobby of mine!

Hey Earl, again those colors are so cool. Did you know you can hit these with a crossman pump pellet gun at about 75 yards with iron sights, 😁😁. The dark colored one on the right side shelves, fifth shelf down looks like a front profile of Daniel. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

In fact they all look like DALEKS, your breeding miniature DALEKS are you mad, oh, wait, ok nope, ok I'm ok,. 😜😜

Speaking of finding VAMs in the wild, I got 2 new morgans in hand I could/should be hunting down VAMs on 1881s and an 1887p One of the best parts of adding a new morgan to my set lol

with some 20-30 VAMs per morgan year.. some with upwards of 50, as well as 2-4 mint marks per year... I think 27 dates is plenty
Oh.. off hand checking over the 2 newest morgans I fear they are both VAM1s... being ms64 and ms61PL that is not overly surprising... just means they were minted before the dies could develop any character :D

The condition is great for that coin , the color is not the greatest but wow what a price for such condition. Congrats. I am paying close to value for the 2 and 3 cent pieces, but I want good color and condition so it is what my wallet will allow as long as the dealer doesn’t try to gouge me beyond the PCGS price guide.

Exactly!! you go through all the effort of finding, picking out and hopefully "winning" a nice morgan... figureing out the VAM once you have it is an extra bonus lol :D
