Just in case you want to look at that huge pile of Two Cent coins you all have for varieties. I thought I would post some diagnostics over the next few days as time permits.

Is that a weak strike on STATES or is it wear?
Looks like some doubling on U in UNITED as well.

Thanks for the education......after all, education is the key to success...
Looking forward to the next one.

The strike is slightly off center and weak. The doubling on the United is actually from re-tooling
