Bdlc Valued Member United States 113 Posts	Posted 08/15/2025 3:25 pm I landed this coin today and am trying to determine it's variety. According to PCGS and such it should be an M54-K, but it is not an exact match to others designated as M54-K. If that is a specific die pair variety, there must be more than one. Any help would be appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff
