Came across this one today. Really heavy doubling of the 979 and maybe a hint on the 1. Also nice doubling of the leaf by the date.

How about a contest to see who can come up with the heaviest doubling?

There is also some interesting "fudging" of the denticles to the left of "1 cent".

your last 9 has me beat I would say, but I may have you on the first 9--looks close. Hard to say from the photos. I would call the 7s a tie. Anyone else got a contender?
