1883-O VAM-57 Doubled Ear & 1, Beveled Tail Feather

Discovered February 2008 JV; Revised Feb 2011
57 (revised) III2 30 - C3a (Doubled Ear & 1, Beveled Tail Feather) (181) I-2 R-5(R-4???)
Obverse III2 30 - 1 slightly doubled below upper crossbar similar to VAM-44. Ear doubled at right inside and slightly at bottom of ear lobe.
Die marker- Horizontal die scratch on neck. Late die states have radial die crack from rim on right side of right 8.
Reverse C3a - Slightly beveled bottom of right tail feathers and part of olive branch from over polished die.

Comments:
1. Late die states have radial die crack from rim on right side of right 8.
2. Die marker- Horizontal die scratch near Bust Point.
3. It appears as though this VAM is a later die state of the VAM-11.
