The left-most flame tip actually has three tips...not all touching the original (can't get it to film correctly). There are extra materials, extra flames, and the letters are all over the place. What a missed opportunity. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34426 Posts	Posted 01/17/2021 09:36 am Looks like it was struck from a tired die. As the cost of ownership is low, you could consider keeping it as a good example of VLDS.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 01/17/2021 3:55 pm Looking again at the OP's dime, it is also a polished die to remove Feeder Finger Damage. How can I tell? The flat polished fields: Before the polishing: After the polishing: A very spendable coin. Report this Post to the Staff
