What's interesting about your 46 pic is that we can see the start of the "design in 6" process as the DC is evident as it touches the bottom of the 6 and touches the bottom of the 4 and on towards the rim.

There also seems to be the start of the fill in the top left side of the 6. I would say that it's right,..but in the early stages of this variety.

My vote is No. This may be the very beginning. But it is definitely not enough to be classified as "hoof in 6"

I would also say no, I have 2 or 3 of the 'hoof in 6' and they don't look like that one, sorry...

I would like to see a 'sharp pic' of that 6 and die crack to rim,... but no closer as a closer pic would probably be blurry again.

Devlec,
I don't understand what you mean by 'no closer'.

I used a scanner - the position is fixed.

I can scan in greater resolution - would that help ?

I don't think this is a hoof "in" 6... the hoof touches the six... and it looks like you have what I call a "clash" from the 4 to the 6.. but for it to be a "hoof in" .. there has to be a large amount of "clash" or material inside of the six making it look like the hoof has extended into the numeral...

I don't think that the "Design in 6" variety means that the hoof is in the 6. The 49 has the extended hoof to the 9.....

Pertinax..It's a bit blurry,..that's all,..and a bit dark.

A sharp pic of the DC through ...and touching the #'s to the denticles would be better.
