VAM 9 - Doubled 18, Dot O is a pairing of Obverse Die 4 with Reverse Dies a or g. This is possible because in 2017 a second die pair was identified as VAM 9.2. Reverse Die g is used in two VAM pairings, 9.1 and 46. Reverse Die a is obviously used in many pairings. These are designated as derivatives of VAM 9 because of the Obverse Die 4 commonality. This discussion is only about VAM 9.1 because of the different pairing.
VAM 9.1, with Reverse Die g, has the same reverse as VAM 46 - Doubled 18, Dot O. VAM 9.2, with Reverse Die a, has the same reverse as VAM 28.2 - Doubled Profile.
As of October 2017 we have eighteen examples of VAM 9.1 for examination. These range from Almost Uncirculated 50 to MS 64, so there is plenty of inventory for study.
None of the coins show any signs of die cracks on the obverse or reverse.
