JJb2123 New Member United States 43 Posts	Posted 04/13/2017 1:59 pm I'll post a comparison picture but the 9's "tail" connects. Makes it appear to be a 8 Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 04/14/2017 09:20 am Could be wear, could also be a die chip joining the tail to the loop. That is a common occurrence on dates with this font style. Usually on the 9's and frequently on the 6's. Report this Post to the Staff
Druu Pillar of the Community United States 1000 Posts	Posted 04/14/2017 11:55 am Not knowing anything of the series, I would still suggest you compare it to a coin minted in the same year. I noticed that the lettering in the 1908 is smaller than the lettering in the 1902. Notice the larger gap between the top of the 1 and the bottom of the bust? Report this Post to the Staff
