Weak D New Member United States 8 Posts	Posted 10/25/2018 8:39 pm Yep, those are decent coattails weak D's. Once again, I post the AU-58 from 2014 Heritage Auction. Both 2's are generally soft compared to the 19, the coat is jagged and even on some worn versions there is distress like stretch marks over the coat below the date. I haven't examined enough of them, but on at least 2, including this AU the left lobe of the WE is raised relative to the right. The reverse is much stronger than Die 1 and 3 as far as wheat ears go. The E in E-Pluribus is tall and illegible, there is a giant U next to a small R in the same word. It's my belief that this reverse was used with a fresh obverse and made a lot of '22 D weak reverse coins. Of course the most obvious identifier is that the reverse is rotated slightly clockwise compared to the other Die 1 and 3 weak-d's which are counter clockwise. Report this Post to the Staff

luvmyCAM Pillar of the Community United States 1479 Posts	Posted 10/25/2018 11:22 pm Awesome die # 4 yours is a cherry the highest grade I have gotten a peak of. I have seen 3 on the bay in low grade or details go from around $40.00-77.00 its hit and miss locating one. These 22 series cents are a hoot. It appears that the TPG's swing all over the place on certifying as no D vs weak D weak reverse. I have them all except the die # 4 no D weak reverse. I'm sure their out there and its going to take a good eye to acquire one. An old timer I know at the Manhattan KS. coin club tells me there is a now die #5. I need to interrogate him further as I would have to see some literature before I draw conclusions. I learn something new all the time, goodness I get a VF then I want an XF. 1922 fascinating.
