Pete2226 Pillar of the Community United States 3330 Posts	Posted 02/26/2016 2:42 pm I think it is an earlier Die State because the crack on the head is not as extensive and the Retained Cud on the wheat stalk has not yet completely developed. Am I correct about that? To bad it is beat up! Report this Post to the Staff

Pete2226 Pillar of the Community United States 3330 Posts	Posted 02/26/2016 5:13 pm The point I was trying to make was that this is an earlier die state than where the Retained Cud on the reverse is complete. I assume in that form it is VLDS? Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/27/2016 11:29 am I'm not sure what coin you are talking about. There are many different dies that has the so called poor mans doubled die. In one roll I found 19 examples (out of 50) and there were many different dies represented in that roll. So there isn't just one die that has this. Report this Post to the Staff

I was looking at your image which showed a Retained Cud on the left wheat stalk. You had posted it in the context of a 1955 poor man discussion https://goccf.com/t/250895#250895), so I assumed (perhaps erroneously) it was a 1955 poor mans DD Reverse: Edited by Pete2226 02/27/2016 1:12 pm Report this Post to the Staff
