jdavis18 Pillar of the Community United States 554 Posts	Posted 05/30/2012 10:38 pm I stared at this coin for a while. The combination of Die Deterioration and abrasion/polishing makes it much harder to tell. Originally, I thought I had a 1989 LMC with a RDV-005 reverse. After staring for a while, I am pretty sure it is actually an RDV-006. The front part of the G comes out just a little too far. If anyone thinks I've made a mistake, please correct me. I would love to have found a new variety (at least I think it's new). Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/31/2012 1:58 pm Note the location of the top of the "G" on FG? Also the 005 & 006 Has different shaped devices. Especially on the M on AMERICA The 005 is rounded, the 006 is flat. I always look at the left leg on the "M". Report this Post to the Staff

jdavis18 Pillar of the Community United States 554 Posts	Posted 06/01/2012 5:32 pm Correct me if I'm wrong but I wouldn't think it would be possible for a 1989 to have a RDV-005 reverse because of how the 1988 RDV-006 variety came about Report this Post to the Staff
