uruman Pillar of the Community United States 5193 Posts	Posted 09/17/2016 6:31 pm Congrats, to is ldb4-012. If you see the bottom left of the chip goes lower on the 012 just like yours. When I try to compare bies I look for where de chips stars and finishes and for the markers. The hardest ones are the ones without markers. Report this Post to the Staff

Pete2226 Pillar of the Community United States 3330 Posts	Posted 09/18/2016 08:19 am Thanks for the help! I have some questions: COC does not mention the crack in the hair - is that an issue? I did a comparison (my coin is top image) with 12 (image used with permission). Is this close enough? http://cuds-on-coins.com/ldb4-1956/ Report this Post to the Staff
