I hope I posted this in the right place.
Is this a VAM-1A and is it a LDS?
If so what grade do you say?
Is it worth grading and what do you think the value is?

It does look like a 1A, just not sure if it is a 1A or a 1A1. I don't see any clashing so it does not appear to be a 1A2. A lot of bag marks on the obverse. But large pictures always seem to high light any marks. This maybe low ball but venture MS61/2? But like I said the picture may be high lighting the marks. BTW the links has some prices on them.

I'd give it a ms-62. I am no expert on vam's and I don't have my book with me, so I can't help their. Nice coin.
