The opening above the horizontal bar looks like a little birdhouse on the small H
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

When looking at the left pic, there is a little bit of extra activity in the lower left interior serif

..and something going as 'an extra' at the top also..

I'm glad that these old eyes did get the LG over SM on that 03..

Hard to be sure ,..and I'm guessing here.. but I would soak that last one here in a warm/hot soapy solution and then take a tooth brush to it and see if that extra piece (of possible crud) sticks around.

If it does then I want to hear back from the 5 cent experts now here..

DEVLEC it is metal. Why it is there I don't know doubling of some sort? Without a microscope that is the best I can do with my camera.

No..NO.. Your pics are great.

The extra piece at the bottom looked like it had a line all of the way around,.. and if taken with a micro camera,..sometimes my micro camera bleaches the colours wrong.
I thought that it might have a different colour and therefore was possibly something else.. If you say that it's metal..then metal it is..

Wishful thinking.
I don't think the coin on the left is large/small.
Where'd the little birdhouse go?

Shall we all make a bet5?
perhaps we should all post our respective coins. IN order, so we can compare?
would certainly help.
But how would we go about it? this subject surely does effect us all, as we have seen in our " decisions, or should I say suggestions?"

47P7...Thanks for adding me in there with nickelsguy and SPP and DBM..

...but I have 'very little' expertise in my collection and have mainly handled one coin of each date. I was also pointed in the wrong direction by a large grading company who only asked after grading my collection.."Are they for sale"..?

SPP and nickelsguy "did and do" constant research and put their findings down in print for us to gladly devour. They have handled tons of the same dates and are able to come to well founded conclusions.

In the past year I've been able to sometimes pick their brains.. and that has helped point me in the right direction..
