1883-P Morgan Clash OBV or VAM

[eaxtellcoin]

I'm not a VAM collector but when Silver hits the highs it is now, cashing in!
I noticed this on one of the Morgans we have, has something below the first 8 in the field and loop. IS this a Strike though or a listed VAM or both?
Notice the decent strike through on the reverse.

While this is not a 1883 (it is an 1886), it will give you an idea of where that clash mark came from. This is the link.

This is the VAM site for that year.

Thanks BJ!. It doesn't look listed from the site on the OBV. I cannot believe that though because of all the scrutiny of last 25+ years... Any Idea of what the OBV is or maybe please post.

Since none of the other digits show any signs of doubling or repunched, I would guess that this is die damage to the lower part of the 8 digit. I am not a VAMer, though I do appreciate them; my interest is in die clashes on the Morgans and Peace dollars.
