dprince1138 Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 (edited) I see what could be a shadow of the extra "V". Congratulations if it truly is one The NGC Census shows that, as of August 2023, there are 37 certified examples, including four tied for highest graded at NGC MS 68. There are currently 168 specimens for sale on ebay (According to the NGC variety census, for which I do not know how the algorithm works).. Prices vary. More dramatic the higher the grading, of course. Edited November 24, 2023 by dprince1138 Newenglandrarities 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Meenderink Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 (edited) Do not listen to the member above he is not anywhere near an expert on coins of any type. There is no "shadow" of a V. The coin you have posted is NOT a VDBV. Dprince stated "The more dramatic the higher the grading of course." This is unequivocally false the type of error and its severeness does not effect a coins grade at all. Period end of story.

Greenstang Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 From photo supplied I am not seeing the extra V. Can you take a clear closeup of that area. Sandon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandon Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 Here is NGC's closeup photo of the so-called 2023 "Extra V": I'm not sure whether the OP's photo shows the same anomaly. EagleRJO and dprince1138 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dprince1138 Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 I can barely make out a possible outline, at about the proper distance. I need to invest in a better camera myself. My iphone is not cutting it. While simply taking an image of the obverse\reverse may be acceptable, the die variety clues are difficult to pick up and I end up having to experiment with lighting and magnification, much less keeping my hands still and I can spend 30 minutes on an image.

powermad5000 Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 I cannot discern the if there is an extra V in the photo provided. There could be but the light has washed out the area of interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
