I agree there is Die Deterioration and maybe it's these old eyes, but I do see more than Die Deterioration.

The stars under "ATE" seem to show thickness & notching on the right & left arms.

The "points" coming out of the top of the stars do look like trails, which would be from die polishing.

Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

Thank You, Petespockets55
All those things still have had me wondering!
I thought the "shoulders" on the stars look like a little more than deterioration.
I was hesitant to call the points on the rays and stars Die Trails, since they don't seem to strickly follow the rule of being parallel to each other. Don't know if there is such a thing as "atypical" die trail, or, if the distance between each device allows for the variance.
Once Wexler reopens attribution services, I plan on submitting one of these (I have three). Then I'll post an update.

Why don't you send this in to James Wiles at Variety Vista?

It would cost me $30
It's not worth that much to me.

How did you figure $30? It looks to me it would cost you less, $15 for the attribution, and $8 for return postage and insurance, if your coin is listed in VV.

You forgot to add my postage to send it to V.V.
$15 + $8 + $7 = $30.00

The postage is (obviously) the same regardless of who does the attribution, but $15 per coin is too rich for me.
