Rupe11 New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 11/19/2019 8:25 pm I discovered that on this coin that the A and M in America are touching. I have researched this and can't find anything like it. Does anyone know anything? Report this Post to the Staff

Rupe11 New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 11/19/2019 9:33 pm I was able to find this 1979 obverse photo. It appears that the A and M are not touching. Report this Post to the Staff
Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 1578 Posts	Posted 11/19/2019 10:43 pm That's a proof with mirrored fields. The bottom of the letters are lost in the dark area, but they are just touching. Here's the first 3 1979 images I looked at. All 3 show the letters touching. It's always best to compare the same type of coin (business strike to business strike and proof to proof) to the one you're looking at because they can be different or in this case, look different.
