SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 04/17/2020 9:52 pm I have a hard time with these newer shield cents because my usb microscope just can't get a good picture of them no matter what I try. It looks like there's a little extra thickness on the "RTY" of "LIBERTY" to me with slight notching on the bottom of the "T" and "Y." What do people think? Second picture is a normal 2015 cent for reference. Edited by SamCoin 04/18/2020 10:08 am Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34423 Posts	Posted 04/18/2020 06:19 am @SC, while I am far from an expert on these, the first thing that I look for is the difference in arm widths on the letter Y. As noted by @e&v, the notching at the bottom of this letter is also a good sign. The slight thickening on other letters like the T is evident on this coin, but (to me at least) only evident when comparing side-by-side as you have done with this post. Well done with this find!

SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 04/18/2020 10:11 am thanks so much for the feedback, guys! I have to go back through Wexler's listings for 2015. I think it may be wddo-001, but before the die chip on the hair. Edited by SamCoin 04/18/2020 10:18 am Report this Post to the Staff
