My question is this, if Variety Vista recognizes the extra thickness on the 4 on the DDO version, would this possibly be considered as DDO as well? The last pic was borrowed from V.V.

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 09/10/2018 10:32 pm Good question, don't know a definite answer. Will give you a guess tho, there are two different date styles for the 74 hubs, I don't have any chart, know Coop would. But a sid by side of yours and VVs a has a difference, the tail of the 7 is shorter. I'm going to guess that VV may have it wrong in that the 4 maybe a Master hub doubled event, where yeah, it's doubled, but on many, many other working dies, at all mints. Ahh! Found it! You have a small date, VVs is a large date on the 4, check end of crossbar, flat/angled. http://www.lincolncentresource.com/...es/1974.html Edited by Crazyb0 09/10/2018 10:38 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 79404 Posts	Posted 09/10/2018 10:34 pm There's some circulation flattening on the 4 in the date. Maybe that's why the 4 in the date seems thicker in size? Nevermind about my previous comment. Crazyb0 nailed it! Errers and Varietys.

Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5240 Posts	Posted 09/10/2018 11:16 pm I know it is a small date, I apologize for not adding that to my post! So what I have is an everyday run of the mill 4 on the date, correct? Report this Post to the Staff
