'''DPIS - ;Emission Sequence :Obverse: :Reverse: '''Comments: # The [[1888-O VAM-15 has a strongly re-punched mint mark w/ the remains of an underlying O appearing below & slightly right of the strong mint mark. This VAM appears to be quite rare & tough to find in high grades. # Beware of [[1888-O VAM-12. It is an "evil mimic" of the [[1888-O VAM-15 and has a doubled reverse, but not as strong. It also has a repunched O, but not exactly the same.
