Pennynickelguy Valued Member United States 308 Posts	Posted 05/07/2014 10:05 pm Just posted this on Days of Indian Head cents and noticed a double 6. If anyone could let me know which Snow Variety this is, I would really appreciate it!! There is a lot of crud inside the numbers, especially the nine, so I tried to take a few close ups of the numbers themselves. The "9" The "6" The "6" close up Thank you!!

beaglebailey Pillar of the Community United States 716 Posts	Posted 05/07/2014 10:48 pm S6 has a repunched 6 that looks very similar to your coin, but your coin appears to have a repunched 9 also which I can't find in Snow's book. However, my book is not the latest edition and there may be varieties that I don't have. Report this Post to the Staff

Also, looking through a 30X microscope, the doubling of the "9" looks more like debris instead of metal. Thanks for your help! Report this Post to the Staff

After 2 or 3 days gently pick at the debris in and around the numbers. Oregon coin geek.....* GO BEAVS ! ! ! * Report this Post to the Staff
