Yes indeed, a genuine score. Great find. Quote:
Traildies.com doesn't have any pennies listed past 2017. Does anyone know if they remain active in cataloging these coins? Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art |

WOW that is a cool find....you Philly mint searchers get all the cool coins. That cent would never make it over here to the west coast, someone bound to snatch it up in it's travels.

I'll reach out to one of the editors. We are on the outs right now (made him mad for some reason) but maybe he will make an exception, since it's not for me.  -makecents-

...strange how the main trail isn't originating from the corner of the "T" like the other... Notice where the trails do line up in relation to the vertical bar of the "T" and the other letters. It is at the top of the vertical bar. IMHO, (I probably won't be able to describe this clearly but here goes nothing ..) the material that is being polished from the surface of the die is building up in the recesses of the letters (like a resevoir) and then funneled, focused, and forced out of the recess at the same angle as the rest of the trails. In this case, the "trail" is going from the top of the vertical bar of the "T" like the other letters and happens to pass through the cross bar. Does anyone know if a study has ever been done to determine the angle, or range of angles, of the trails in relation to the "long" or deep part of the devices? (or anything else in relayion to the devices?) Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.

Petespockets55; Sounds concise, thank you. Haven't looked up the article (yet), but, TrailDies.com references this article: "For a more detailed explanation, please see the article "Unraveling the Mysteries of Trail Dies" by Will Brooks in the July 17th 2017 issue of CoinWorld Weekly." |

Will Brooks This was who I reached out to but to no avail. I texted him this thread in hopes he may reach out to you. Here is another link to his description of Trail Dies in the glossary on the Lincoln Cent Forum. The pics are from a member on CCF, professional photographer, Ray Parkhurst (rmpsrpms on CCF).

Thank You, -makecents- I had included the link to my post also when I tried to contact T.D. (maybe I shouldn't do that anymore - I did it last time I tried to contact a different site regarding a coin I posted - and never got a response there either!   ) |
