Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74880 Posts	Posted 07/03/2019 5:39 pm Looks line a very minor Greaser. Unfortunately, not enough to carry any premium over face value. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34430 Posts	Posted 07/03/2019 6:51 pm Looks more like Die Deterioration to me, but I'll be interested to hear what others say too.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/03/2019 9:42 pm John1 is correct. It is die flow coming back to the fields. it looks like it was already polished off a while back and reduced the devices a bit. But now the die flow is starting to rear it head again. Note on Liberty. The bottoms of the devices are smaller that the tops of the devices. Note the 'I'. The reverse die looks like it was replaced as it is a fresher die state than the obverse.

JW3 Valued Member United States 288 Posts	Posted 07/04/2019 10:15 am So vlds means? Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34430 Posts	Posted 07/04/2019 10:23 am From the CCF glossary, which is located at the top left of your screen: Quote: Acronym for Very Late Die State. Dies age and show wear as they are used. The die starts in EDS (Early Die State), then progresses to MDS (Mid Die State), then progresses to LDS (Late Die State). When the die is ready for retirement, it reaches the VLDS (Very Late Die State).
