I sure hope that they are better at attributing VAM's then the other TGP's are at bust silver. Probably the easiest series to attribute by die marriage is the half dollar series. (designated by Overton number) It has been my experience, however, that at least 1 in 10 ANACS Overton attributions are wrong. And they are the BEST of the bunch. Their attributions of bust half dimes are even worse. (I haven't seen enough dime or quarter attributions to make any statements.)
Grading is relative; I can accept that different people will grade a coin differently. Die marriages aren't, however, and I do not think that 90% should be considered a passing grade when one pays for a value added service such as variety attribution.
