RedRaider Pillar of the Community United States 1018 Posts	Posted 12/13/2022 12:53 pm I could not find this in the attribution guide. This date is littered with MPDs in the hair curls, but none of the ones in Ricks last published guide match up with this from what I could tell? Also appears to be the top an 8 in the denticles. Interesting with MPDs possibly above and below the date. Thoughts? Anyone else want to confirm its not in the guide? Coin is graded MS64BN and these are trueview images.

RedRaider Pillar of the Community United States 1018 Posts	Posted 12/13/2022 12:57 pm Nevermind.....I think I answered my own question. This is a S-8, however the attribution guide does not mention or show the MPD in the hair curl. It is clearly there in the image posted for the date in his guide though. Report this Post to the Staff

RedRaider Pillar of the Community United States 1018 Posts	Posted 12/14/2022 10:01 am I sent Rick the photo and description and let him know that the MPD in the hair curl was readily visible in his attribution guide. It is a decently early Snow-number for the date and I'm guessing that the MPD in the denticles was all that was identified when submitted. There are 11 more Snow varieties of this date that have MPD in the hair, ribbon, neck, etc... He did reply and say "thank you". I can show him the coin in person at the FUN show in a few weeks.
