    Visit my web site for VAM ID help, especially 1921-D varieties: www.rjrc.com. www.vamlink.com and www.ashmore.com are also great information sources.

    I've posted photos of most of my Top 100 VAM regeistry set. The pics are not the typical "ooohhhhhh look at my MS-96 Proof" Check it out!
    updated my Top 100 VAM registry set quite a bit this month. Rather than post normal obverse and reverse photos that focus on the quality of the coin, I tried to provide a close-up microscope photo of the VAM feature and describe the variety. I've imaged almost all the coins in the registry but have been sidetracked the last week with holiday activities. Take a look here:

    Also, this format looks REALLY COOL in gallery mode:

    Love to hear what you think.

    I definitely appreciate the 2005 registry set award and the effort you put into silver dollar die varieties.
    My Top 100 Morgan VAM set was recognized with a "Best Presented Set 2005" award:

    I really appreciate all the effort NGC has put into rolling out Top 100, Hot 50, 8TF and the other VAM sets. Its support like this that has really mainstreamed Morgan Variety collecting.
    I also am amazed that I'm the ONLY person to post an O/CC set. Come on who else has some O over CC coins!?!
