Mint mark centered and upright. DPIS - C3/LE5 ;Emission Sequence :Obverse: :Reverse: 20, additional die pair, 1D Comments: # The reverse of this VAM (EDS) boasts not less than 20 die gouges (of varying size) on the eagle! # There is an additional die pair currently without a die pair that falls between 1891-S VAM-20 and 1891-S VAM-1D. January 2026 update: Unsure if this comment is related to the post describing a novel obverse pairing with the VAM-1D and VAM-20 reverse - but keep a watch out for that combination as it has YET to be submitted as a discovery coin!
