Pertinax Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2133 Posts	Posted 03/12/2024 4:12 pm I appreciate that this is a terrible picture but I've only my phone, at the moment. A bit of the 'W' on the left edge of WE, and bit of the right lower loop of the 8 in the date seem to have merged in with the edge. Also, the inside of the D mintmark seems to be filled. The reverse appears to be normal. Are these known errors? Report this Post to the Staff

MisterT Pillar of the Community United States 2003 Posts	Posted 03/12/2024 5:15 pm I concur with all of the above. And just for accuracy sake, IGWT is considered to be the motto, not the legend. Report this Post to the Staff
