Found another rariety 7 Vam.Same as the 1878 Vam 34a with the G clash.This is the most heavily clashed coin I have seen    The G clash starts just above the golden spot about halfway up the neck.See the T in the hairvee.

You are right Ken, it is unusual to see that G without use of a loupe. Heavy clashing at the wreath on the right side of the reverse too.

that is not a "G" from the motto. It looks more like the I on IN. You can see that the G would be on the neck on an overlay:

I have to disagree.Vamworld states this is the G.If you rotate the reverse slightly and put the T from trust in the hairvee as this Vam is described and pictured,it will be the edge of the G.
