asimpson91 Valued Member United States 286 Posts	Posted 09/06/2012 11:32 am Picked this up the other day. Very slightly bent. But the price was right. After examining it further when I got home It looks to have the bottom of the 7 Under the Last 8 The second to last Feather is not weak. And the low grade makes it near impossible to identify any break in the Denticles above TE in United. Here are the pics! Any help would be great! Thank you! Report this Post to the Staff

This is determined by the position of the date in relation to the bust. Here is the Snow-1: Report this Post to the Staff
Drsandman2 Pillar of the Community United States 1374 Posts	Posted 09/06/2012 5:05 pm DVCollector is correct. It is possible that it could be one of several other minor RPDs, but there is too much gunk to tell which. Report this Post to the Staff

DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 09/07/2012 4:33 pm Btw--I can also see how there's something in the top loop of the last "8", and it could be construed as a 7. I collect overdates, and have seen such a thing before. If you're still curious, you could send it to Rick Snow for his opinion. Here's a montage of various overdates. Report this Post to the Staff
