copper nickel daddy Pillar of the Community United States 2224 Posts	Posted 02/03/2009 5:20 pm Like to get some expert opinions of this one. The mintmark matches the coppercoins.com photos, but the reverse lacks the die scratches around the top of the wheat stalk. If clearer photos are needed I will work on that. Thanks!

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/03/2009 7:01 pm Location looks close. I can see the West side, but you should also see something at 4:00 and 6:00. The reverse issue with the die scratches missing is not a biggie. Your may have been struck before the scratches or after the scratches faded, or a different reverse die may have been used. But looking at the die state it may be earlier than the example on coppercoins. The die wear on the tail of the 9 looks less on your example. It does look very promising. Try taking images with the light at the 6:00 & 4:00 position to see if the markings are there. That would help. I'm working on an overlay now. ADDED Overlay matches the location. Looks better all the time! Edited by coop 02/03/2009 7:06 pm Report this Post to the Staff
copper nickel daddy Pillar of the Community United States 2224 Posts	Posted 02/03/2009 10:07 pm Hi coop! Thanks for the help! Hopefully this photo will help; there is clearly a mark which matches the photos on coppercoins at 6 o'clock, but I see nothing at 4 o'clock. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/03/2009 11:41 pm It may be there, just have to have the right angle of light. The inside of the mint mark looks a little dusty, but you should see something inside there as well. Report this Post to the Staff
coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 02/04/2009 10:14 am It looks right to me. Looks like an earlier die state than the one I have listed on the site, but still looks to be the same die. Report this Post to the Staff
