Just photographed these two Washingtons. If the first one a Heavy Motto or just some fatter letters?

The first one is Heavy Motto , the second one is Medium Motto . The tough one is the Light Motto.

Thanks, I thought so. I have better examples of light and medium mottos but this was my first heavy motto. These were pretty cheap (AU58 money) but also did look way better in the auction listing's very diffused lighting.

If it weren't for the bag-marks on George's cheek and the Eagles breast, I would be looking at nice high grade 1934 MM here.

The Heavy Motto isn't too bad and certainly fills a slot until I can find a better one.

nicely struck up and lustrous. I think it falls at least in the MS65 area

@Coinfrog Thank you. Just getting back into it after several years. Trying to remember all of the tricks I had learned and have been re reading everything here that initially got me into photographing coins 10 years ago. No stranger to a camera.

@panzaldi Which one? They both are very lusterous.
