1921D VAM-1U Die Gouge E of ONE and Wreath Bow

Discovered by Jim Hart, June 2001 (Desirability:  )

Condition Census: 65P, 65A, 64R, 64P, 62A (Total: 11 MS, 3 Circ.)

The VAM-1U has a diagonal die gouge from the E in ONE through the wreath bow to the first tail feather on the right. Seldom encountered, this is one of the longer die gouges in the Morgan series, making it prized by VAM collectors. As evidenced by the condition census, a few high quality examples of this VAM have surfaced.
