'''DPIS - ;Emission Sequence :Obverse: :Reverse: '''Comments: # The 6 in the date has line above the circular portion of the 6. This is probably a die gouge, but could possibly be a re-punched digit. Be careful when attributing this VAM as some dies have polish in the same area where the line exists. I've seen coins in holders labeled [[1886-P VAM-1A that are most definitely not. Check the attribution yourself to be sure! # The former 1886-P VAM-1A Die 2 is now [[1886-P VAM-1M.
