Pete2226 Pillar of the Community United States 3331 Posts	Posted 11/20/2016 05:11 am The mint mark itself certainly looks like it. What do you see on the right wheat and the T in CENT? The chip on the head is puzzling. Report this Post to the Staff

Pete2226 Pillar of the Community United States 3331 Posts	Posted 11/20/2016 11:11 am If it also has the die gouges from UNUM to wheat missing, that would lead me to think that it is a different variety than those listed. I am wondering what an overlay would look like or a side by side to compare mint mark position? Just eyeballing the position, it leaves me wondering if there are some very minor differences.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/21/2016 4:14 pm On the first image marked EDS, you will see very little die wear on the devices. The fields are totally clear of all die flow because this die was fresh when this coin was struck. On the third image (Sudz coin) you will note a slight amount of die flow lines SE-NW on the fields of the coin. The devices are rounding a bit. There is still some light die scratches present. (seems like when you see these die scratches, they are usually MDS die state coins) On the second image marked LDS, you will note the heavier flow present on the fields. Also the die flow is noticed on the tops of the devices also. The die is aging and starting to show that. Note even the top of the mint mark is showing this as well. When comparing the three mint marks, you can see the first one is still showing the freshness of the die. On the third on you can see the rounding off on the top of the mint mark. On the center on, you can see breakdown on the top of the mint mark. When it gets to the next die state (VLDS) things really get bad for the coin struck by them. They show a lot id die flow on the fields. Even the devices are starting to breakdown on the whole coin. Report this Post to the Staff
