Under magnification the "G" in GOD looks like the serif is separated.   The first pic #37 is the messed up one the second pic #36 is another 2013 at the same focus and distance.

that G is a bit odd, could have been hit after minting, need a closer view of the G

Try filtering your light source. What is your light source? John1

What I'm using is a Plugable USB Digital Viewer Microscope with Flex Mount & 250x Magnification. This has a built in light source, which I believe is filtered. Here's a closer pic.  Right on top of it, can't get any closer.

Quote: scubalou I may be wrong,but I see light coming from more than one angle and that will cause problems. I had to block off all but one light on my scopes,and filter that single bulb. Sometimes I turn off the onboard lights and use a hand held LED flashlight. John1

I understand the O & D are md, I just thought the serif on the G was separated and crooked.

John1: The microscope I use has four lights equally distributed around the scope. I have no question about md on this slogan. My only point was that the G seems like it's more than just that. I think Errors & Variety may have it right Die Deterioration Doubling coupled with md. It only shows up under max close up so I don't think it's anything major. Just a curiosity.
