There is only one thing that troubles me on this one. That is the mark on the inside of the mint I am thinking that, if they are a match, the chip inside the mint mark would indicate a later die state, wouldn't it? |

The BIE appears a little more developed (larger at the bottom of the "B") on Pete's . Possibly A later die state which might account for the mark on the MM ? Just noticed the break on Pete's also looks like it covers more of the "E" that the one listed on COC

 So much for my nap. I pull out my 1955s-116 which is the LDB4-1955S-002. No mark on the inside of the MM. Louis, no die crack above the eye. Edited by JC Stevens

There is a note on the listing for the - 002 which is probably for Louis's coins.
"DIE MARKERS: OBVERSE - SOME COINS MAY SHOW A LIGHT CRACKED SKULL."
So JC, is the OP's coin a later die stage because of the chip in the MM or is it a different die = New Listing?

lawest - it seems to look like 002 - and there appears to be the beginnings of the chip in the mm

These are a very good examples. If it's ok with both Pete & Louis I'll list both of these examples to show the different stages and how the die changes. http://cuds-on-coins.com/ldb4-1955s/Edited by JC Stevens

Neat progression. When I first looked at my coin, I did not see the crack on the skull. That was one of the things confusing me about it. So I looked again, and manipulated the lighting a bit. Here it is:  |
