Bogiesmokes Valued Member United States 197 Posts	Posted 06/07/2021 12:12 pm Hi All The '9' in the date looks odd, maybe smashed by a car, machine, or something else? I'm thinking it's PMD. Parts of 'Liberty' look like it took a hit of PMD. I'd appreciate your thoughts whether it looks like PMD or a thicker 9... Many thanks for any input Report this Post to the Staff

Oldfordman Pillar of the Community United States 2869 Posts	Posted 06/07/2021 6:06 pm That's interesting about the L. I thought it was just a popular spot for grease. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/07/2021 7:30 pm Well because of the wide rims, the 'L' draws into the rim area. What I mentioned about the die wear on the wrong side of the devices on the wide rim cents. Here is what I'm talking about. Note the die wear on the '9' is on the wrong side of the devices. It should be on the side facing the rim. But I determined that is just seen on the cents with the wide rims: uploaded/coop/1912_DIE_WEAR_EXAMPLES_AAA.jpg]/img] More noticed on the later die states.
