Nice extra's on the coin (IMHO!) ]Image: 2007WashingtonStateExtraMountainTop2.jpg 62.44 KB Image: 2007WashingtonStateExtraMountainTop1.jpg 59.43 KB Image: Regular2007WashRev1.jpg 61.37 KB Image: extrawavejpeg5.jpg 30.06 KB Image: extrawavejpeg2.jpg 62.98 KB Image: RegularWave2007WashRev.jpg 72.79 KB Image:[/b] 2007WashingtonStateExtraMountainTopSideview.jpg 71.29 KB Report this Post to the Staff

seattleMD Valued Member United States 405 Posts	Posted 08/11/2008 2:25 pm The 'eruption' at the top of the mountain looks like die chip / die wear, but the extra wave sure looks like it could be the result of doubling on the die of the wave below it. Only thing that worries me is most single-squeeze doubling found today appears around the center of the design and this is on the edge. Report this Post to the Staff

foundinrolls Pillar of the Community United States 3507 Posts	Posted 08/11/2008 6:23 pm The "extra wave" is a die chip. A close look seems to indicate evidence of a tiny die crack extending from the tip of the die chip. That lends more credence to the die chip concept. The extra mountain top is either the result of die wear or again, a minor die chip. Thanks, Bill Report this Post to the Staff

seattleMD Valued Member United States 405 Posts	Posted 08/11/2008 7:41 pm Good eyes catching the die crack leading into that extra wave, Bill. I agree completely that it's a die chip. Report this Post to the Staff
