CarlOmaha Valued Member United States 181 Posts	Posted 02/10/2021 3:00 pm Here is a new rabbit hole that I've started to go down. I'm attempting to compile a list of 1956-D LWC varieties that have either a solid 6 or a broken 6 in the date. Due to the lack of adequate online photos of the date or lack of uploaded files for the following varieties, determination of a solid or broken 6 is not possible at this time. I am seeking out collectors, here, that might have some of these varieties in their collections and are willing to provide reference photos and confirmation of either a solid or broken 6 in their dates. Also, if any collectors have made any cross-reference determinations between CopperCoins.com and DoubledDie.com varieties, that information would be most welcome, as well. Solid 6 example: http://varietyvista.com/01a%20LC%20...001.htm?fb=1 Broken 6 example: http://varietyvista.com/01a%20LC%20...007.htm?fb=1 Thank you, in advance, for your help. 1956D WRPM-057 1956D-1MM-017 1956D-1MM-019 1956D-1MM-023 1956D-1MM-025 1956D-1MM-032 1956D-1MM-033 1956D-1MM-034 1956D-1MM-036 1956D-1MM-037 1956D-1MM-038 1956D-1MM-039 1956D-1MM-040 1956D-1MM-042 1956D WDDO-053 1956D WDDO-055 1956D WDDO-056 1956D WDDO-057 1956D WDDO-058 1956D WDDO-060 1956D WDDO-061 1956D WDDO-062 1956D-1DO-008 1956D-1DO-010 1956D-1DO-012 1956D-1DO-019 Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/10/2021 6:46 pm Well the issue is not the die. It is the working hub that was the issue. Thus several dies have this issue. Some normal and RPMs. Pretty common that year. On a broken hub, the affected area is blank. It has happened a few times on the die though the years: Edited by coop 02/10/2021 6:46 pm Report this Post to the Staff
CarlOmaha Valued Member United States 181 Posts	Posted 02/10/2021 7:20 pm Thanks, Coop! I had you in mind, when I posted this. I hoped that you would chime in. I realize that there are a lot of known, documented examples of this broken 6 (P&D), but I'm trying to find out which 6 the listed varieties are. My list is of those varieties with no images of the 6 in the date. I'm hoping that other collectors can fill in the gaps. Thank you! Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/10/2021 9:15 pm Check the three sites for RPMs on cents, also doubled dies. That way you can see images as well. Some I've listed, were ones I've discovered. Report this Post to the Staff
CarlOmaha Valued Member United States 181 Posts	Posted 02/10/2021 10:27 pm Coop, The varieties that I have listed do not have photos of the entire date in order to see a solid or broken 6. Report this Post to the Staff
CentSation Pillar of the Community United States 713 Posts	Posted 02/10/2021 10:59 pm Interesting observation, I have never noticed the difference in the sixes. One source you might seek is 'mustbebob' [Bob Piazza] on Lincolncentforum.com [if you are on that site]. He may have special insight being that he also attributed for coppercoins.com. I believe that 1956 is his birth year so it is of particular interest. Report this Post to the Staff
