Clearly a revision/kill is in order. # The marriage pictured here uses the VAM 14 reverse confirmed by markers from VAM 14A. At least 3 marriages use this reverse and I'm not certain any are described with accurate secondary markers for their respective obverse dies. # (*Duplicate Alert - see 1881-S VAM-13, 1881-S VAM-34.*)
