hewart Valued Member United States 157 Posts	Posted 10/14/2022 9:26 pm I've included a normal 2016 for comparison. Left side was struck right against the rim. It follows upward to include a few letters in the motto. Any idea what I am looking at ? Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95936 Posts	Posted 10/14/2022 9:42 pm Is your example coin the same year and die set as the one you are asking about? Please show the entire coin of your comparison coin. Also, is the edge of your coin taller making the coin look thicker? Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

hewart Valued Member United States 157 Posts	Posted 10/14/2022 9:54 pm The comparison coin was the same year and mint. It's unlikely that it came from the same die. I just wanted to show what it should have looked like. This looked like an offset strike to me but I have not seen one this far off before. I'll try to get you a full picture of the comparison coin.
