Clickraider New Member United States 41 Posts	Posted 06/02/2018 06:35 am Hello. Need opinions on this coin or what to call it. I can see an obvious D over a D on the Mint Mark, some doubling on the LIBERTY anr not sure if DD on the DATE, Die Chip below the shoulder, doubling on the coat and bow. Maybe behind the head too. On the Reverse side, the Columns and some letters have anomallies. Let me know what you think. Edited by Clickraider 06/02/2018 06:52 am Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 06/02/2018 07:25 am The pic gets pretty pixelated when I blow it up, but that looks more like split plating to me.

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 06/02/2018 12:07 pm Agree, but overall the pics are too small for me to make much sense of. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/02/2018 3:30 pm On the date, I see Die Deterioration. Meaning the die is getting closer to retirement. But not yet. A few hundred thousand left to go. Probably split plating on the mint mark as you suggested. Report this Post to the Staff
Clickraider New Member United States 41 Posts	Posted 06/03/2018 06:48 am Ah! Split Plating. Now there is a word I have not seen in a while. I agree. Thanks for your help. Report this Post to the Staff
da Swampster Valued Member United States 420 Posts	Posted 06/03/2018 11:25 am Thanks for the memory jog, Coop.. I couldn't see it in the original photo or Spence's enlargement.. And then the words were uttered.. The 1989-D belongs to a year that includes a damaged " D " punch in the mix.. Many Ds out there absent copper at the outside SE.. Swamp Report this Post to the Staff
