That sure looks good to me. I can just make out the serf on the end of the "G" as in Coops photo's. Well done, still looking for my first one!

I have my doubts, but I am no pro.  A better photo might help. |

It doesn't look like an RDV-006 to me...I'm not an expert but after finding four of them, they just kinda jump out at you....this one's not doing that.

I'll admit that last scan does make me think but the only thing that bothers me is that the G should be farther to the right...see how the centerline is past the tip of the memorial on this pic ?  Edited by Maineman750

darn thats a nice pic but the coin is being scanned so all details are not visible and there is alot of light play back into the scanner if I had better means of taking a closeup I would but it does match coops pic the shorter rounder G with the bar in it the top curl not going past the center bar. I wish I had a better way of showing it to you guys

hybrid, the best thing about searching cents is that it only costs one cent to put it back until you get better pics or somebody to examine in hand.

Hey Coop-
I know you've got a wealth of photos. You couldn't have that store of images without the knowledge and understanding that you obviously possess.
It's not my intention to "call you out", but would you consider expounding upon your photos with more text. I really enjoy other's informed perspective and would love to get a better grasp on your perspective and views. Maybe I shoulda PM'd you, but I'm being genuine and real, no disrespect intended.

Based on your latest pics, unfortunately,that's a RDV-005 not the RDV-006.

Earle, in 1988 there were some coins minted with the reverse of '89. They are the same reverses that you look for in '98-00 for WAM's. Not sure why this one isn't just called a WAM reverse, too.  Anyway, you can find this reverse on '88-D coins as well, but they seem to be a little more difficult than the Phillies to find. You can check out the reverse designs and other coolness here: http://www.varietyvista.com/Lincoln...0Changes.htm |

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the distinguishing feature of this die variety the serif on the G? Because if so it sure looks like Hybrid has one.
