Pete2226 Pillar of the Community United States 3330 Posts	Posted 11/30/2014 4:57 pm I am thinking that this is NOT 1977D-1MM-001. Although the D is tilted at the right angle, it is positioned about 1/8 MM too far to the left. So I don't know what to think. I believe that bit of difference is important in trying to identify these...Everything else fits ok with an overlay. Edited by Pete2226 11/30/2014 5:40 pm Report this Post to the Staff

SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 11/30/2014 5:47 pm Interesting. The MM is too big, it's too far to the right as well as the left. Could it just be a question of die wear? Report this Post to the Staff
Pete2226 Pillar of the Community United States 3330 Posts	Posted 11/30/2014 5:55 pm If it were die wear which expanded the mint mark, then perhaps it could be the ID I was thinking it isn't. The area along the top is not exactly what it should be either. Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 11/30/2014 6:30 pm I'm just throwing ideas out. The exact duplication of the MM rotation seems a little too cute, you know? It's worth talking about. Report this Post to the Staff

It's worth talking about. My problem is that I don't know what to say about it. Perhaps if it is the exact rotation - which it seems from an overlay - and your idea of Die Deterioration - it could be a later stage die than 1977D-1MM-001 - which is already identified as LDS.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/01/2014 2:24 pm The location looks correct. If you could get a better image that is clear it would help The devices seem wider that they should be which means it may have been polished and mushed the tops of the devices. Or the image make it appear like it is underwater? So a clearer image might reveal more? Report this Post to the Staff
