What you are seeing is the left bottom branch of the back of a dime taken from his head when looking real close you just actually see the bottom of the torch and the other Branch coming out in front of his mouth and his nose. I have also found other dimes with the same pattern if you will when I leave branches come out from his head like this not quite the same as this one or to this extent but you can see them.

WayStraitt New Member 27 Posts	Posted 01/08/2020 10:13 pm I'm sorry but I'm going to have to disagree. I know my metal it's my profession. The obstruction that is protruding from his head is the bottom the left stem on the back of a dime I can even see the two dots that were on each end of the Latin phrase. I can see the bottom of the torch I could even see the bottom of the right Stem. I guess my question now is how do I get people to look at it maybe even document it because I found several with the exact same overlay Report this Post to the Staff
