wrongnumber Pillar of the Community United States 559 Posts	Posted 06/26/2018 12:42 pm This was literally the last coin I pulled from an original wrapped bank roll of wheats. Thought it looked odd so did my research since I'm not that good at nailing these yet. We've got a match ! The other die markers on forehead hairline & back of hair are present, just can't get a good shot. Also , not sure about what's going on around the nose. There's a channel around it, thoughts?

wrongnumber Pillar of the Community United States 559 Posts	Posted 06/26/2018 2:10 pm Coop, what's your thoughts about around the nose area that continues into the nostril somewhat. Maybe some hard grease ? Report this Post to the Staff

Maybe some hard grease ? Looks to me like the new trainee was grinding & polishing away.. The line and curve are sooo precise though I'd guess it was "taped" off -- as in blocked off with something a bit more substantial than tape.. I see what appears to be similar on the tip of his chin, around the top of his hair and down the left side of jacket as well, although probably not nearly as deep.. Durn nice finish otherwise, though.. Swamp Report this Post to the Staff
wrongnumber Pillar of the Community United States 559 Posts	Posted 06/26/2018 5:18 pm I'll check those areas again when I get back home later tonight. Just noticed around nose because it's a deep channel around the whole thing. Not sure what happened in the nostril area either, hand slipped maybe lol Report this Post to the Staff

stoneman227 Pillar of the Community United States 2376 Posts	Posted 06/26/2018 6:55 pm The incuse area around the profile of the bust is called a chanel or trench. It is believed to have been done to many working hubs from the twenties to the fifties. Thought to be a practice to increase the life of the hub. My example showes it as well.
