No problem. I'm not well-versed in US errors and varieties and found the article to be interesting and informative.

Informative article, too bad they did not show a detail image of the 'strong' OMM.

The article is a bit confusing. It shows the OMM 1 variety as a minor variety versus the "strong" D/S. Variety Vista classifies the strong DDD over S as the OMM 1 or FS 511. here is my example.

Thanks for the extra images that black and white one makes it easy to trace out all the MM's
Mine does not show as well as this one.

@Dearborn, I remember when you posted pics of your specimen. It was nice too! I think I paid either $35 or $40 for this coin at a local coin show in1990. I had a D/D just as nice condition but I sold it about ten years ago.
