Different than VAM 1G die break. Fine die scratches in various directions on over polished tail feathers around eagle's right leg, between eagle's left wing and body and in middle of both wings. ''Die marker'' - Heavy horizontal die polishing line to right of lower berries in first cluster to left of wreath bow. DPIS – In 1921 dates were part of the master die so there is no variation in position. ;Emission Sequence :Obverse: :Reverse: Comments: # On the VAM-1M, a die break has deformed the last S in states, adding metal above the upper serif. Also note that the VAM-1M is a Bean Bottom S variety with the bean break above the lower curve of this second S in STATES. This is not a full "bean," and Leroy says it is too small to list in the description.
