CoinTheTerm Pillar of the Community United States 1161 Posts	Posted 08/25/2019 6:38 pm Hello everyone thanks for viewing, found this gorgeous rainbow toned 1965 LMC with split in the 5 in date, the pictures don't do this justice http://doubleddie.com/777097.html http://www.varietyvista.com/01b%20L...O%201965.htm Report this Post to the Staff

Biedercoins Pillar of the Community United States 1601 Posts	Posted 08/25/2019 7:05 pm Intriguing notch. Is this a slightly off centered strike or just a VLDS? The L in liberty is practically part of the thin rim?. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinTheTerm Pillar of the Community United States 1161 Posts	Posted 08/25/2019 7:11 pm hey biedercoins, intriguing indeed, on variety vista the DDO-002 and DDO-003 both showing progression of L to rim, actually very common in all 1960's cents, I've seen this a lot. But the separation in the five is very evident, just hard to take pictures of, the separation is on both top of the 5 and in the turn http://www.varietyvista.com/01b%20L...5PDDO003.htm Edited by CoinTheTerm 08/25/2019 7:17 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Biedercoins Pillar of the Community United States 1601 Posts	Posted 08/25/2019 7:22 pm Your L isn't just encroachment, it looks like part of the rim, like a Cud would. And no, I'm not implying this is a Cud. Is there any space? I'm asking because it ( die age) may account for lack of doubling above the 5. Report this Post to the Staff

CoinTheTerm Pillar of the Community United States 1161 Posts	Posted 08/25/2019 7:40 pm here are better pics biedercoins, it does touch the rim, it seems the coin is off center because the rim on the date side is much thicker and thins as it goes around to liberty, thanks again Report this Post to the Staff
CoinTheTerm Pillar of the Community United States 1161 Posts	Posted 08/25/2019 7:51 pm ahhh gotcha so I guess for it to be a DDO there would have to be doubling showing above the 5, correct? Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/25/2019 7:55 pm Here is a pretty toned SMS cent: I was looking for any DDO cent Images I have, but don't have any. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinTheTerm Pillar of the Community United States 1161 Posts	Posted 08/25/2019 7:58 pm wow thats awesome those look great, really like that. Hey coop so for it to be a 1965 DD the doubling would be above the five? http://doubleddie.com/777097.html Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 08/25/2019 8:17 pm Rainbow toning is notoriously unstable. To stop further progression of toning into a dull and uninteresting coin, spray it with clear acrylic lacquer. If done carefully, much better than airtight, because the lacquer is in close contact with the coin. Report this Post to the Staff
