I am not asking anyone to search the 90 listed BIEs for me - I have been working on it. I detect no markers on my coin - no chips or cracks. There could be a rim Cud to the right of the date, but it is questionable.

Keep in mind you have a mint mark on your coin, so you could rule out a lot of the BIEs with the location of the mint marks. That would speed things up a lot.

049A? No your BIE doesn't match. I was just doing the date over for LDB4-1957D-029 - your's being a possible different die stage of that one. What do you think?

The only other one that is catching my eye is LDB4-1957D-036 again yours being a different die stage?

These are tough ones.

I just realized there are 90 listing for D's - 1957 is listed separately.

I agree with CoinCents on it being #36. Yours just looks like it had a rougher life that the one that is listed on COC. MM looks like the right location as well.

Thank you all for the help! It is above and beyond the call of duty!!


For some reason when I start comparing to 90 different possibilities, my eyes loose focus and my head starts spinning and the senility of an old man takes over!

I do think you have it correct! It is 36. Here are some images I did (photos used with permission):http://cuds-on-coins.com/wp-content.../57D531l.jpg and http://cuds-on-coins.com/wp-content.../57D531d.jpg

Fantastic - glad we could help and I certainly understand. I love trying to match up the BIE's - so any time you post one I'll probably jump right in on the hunt.

The date on this one does not line up completely - note some overlap on the 1 and the 9. I do not know how to judge acceptable tolerance on these overlays!

Not quite sure myself - both your coin and the one listed have seen a good bit of circulation so I am sure there will be some variances. Maybe email JC just to make sure.

I have decided not to message JC about this one. It seems so minor to me that it might be better not to bother him. I have had 14 coins listed online with most of them being at COC, so I have bothered him enough already!
