1882-O VAM-37 Tripled Stars and Motto, Doubled 18-2 Discovered by Herb Zepke, July 1998. 37 III227 · C3a (Tripled Stars and Motto, Doubled 18-2) (181) Obverse III227– All left and right stars tripled and quadrupled towards rim. Tops of E PLURIBUS UNUM letters doubled and tripled towards rim. Doubled 18-2 in date with 1 and first 8 slightly doubled the very bottom and first 8 also doubled at lower left outside and right inside of upper loop. 2 doubled slightly on right side of upper ball. Emission Sequence Obverse: Reverse: Comments: The fantastic tripling/quadrupling of the stars on this 82-O variety make the coin worth seeking. It takes a keen eye & viewing the coin from a side angle to readily see the features of the stars. Hence, the 1882-O VAM-37 may often go unnoticed.
