1921S VAM-1B5

Discovered by Michael S. Fey, March 2002

New die gouge out the back of the cap, located higher than the VAM-1B1 gouge.  New gouge over BU of PLURIBUS.  Gouges near the 4th left star.  Other gouges remain from VAM-1B4a. 

All the VAM-1B coins share the same characteristic die gouge between the leaf and the cap.  It is visible with the naked eye and is useful when checking a lot of coins while cherry-picking.
