Okay, I can get the stars, no problem. But tell me, which specific letters do you want me to get close-up pictures of?

RDV-002(Flared G) and RDV-003(Straight G) are the two common reverse dies produced from the master working hubs of the 60's Kennedys. They made a ****pot full of them and distributed to all mints at random. No telling how many or where/when used. They just help in doing a stage/die pair markers for DDO / DDRs is all. |

Mrzllewellyn- I tied. I can't get the light and focus right on these to see clearly. Sorry!
Crazyb0- So bottom-line here in your opinion. RDV-002(Flared G) or RDV-003(Straight G) nothing significant, very common? ....move along nothing here to see?

Tom, the RDV# is "reverse die variety #" assigned to all coin dies issuing from a specific master hub(_read more, Vol 1, how diesc are made below), quite the process. All the dies are made in Philly. Many, especially reverse dies get used over a vast stretch of years. It appears these two dies were very prolific and copies used all through the 60's into the 70's. The "G" was one of the major ID points of the varieties. Apparently some of these master hubs produced a few doubled working hubs (master die doubling) or a specific RDV working hub became doubled causing a DDR. What is always "interesting"(confusing) is when a reverse doubled die is continued to be used into the next years run, same reverse DDR but paired with a different obverse die! |

After reading your post a few times, it's starting to make some sense to me. Thanks for that detailed explanation! |
