Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 05/03/2024 2:08 pm Might check the mint mark closer. The location is so close it has me thinking maybe, maybe not. The die chip on the 9 plus (if another) one on the B in liberty has me thinking more maybe. In the end it's all about the finding the RPM first. The one listed below is LDS.

Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 05/03/2024 3:37 pm Is the last image the same coin? Seems a good bit different than the previous close-up. Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff

Alonzowick90 Pillar of the Community United States 654 Posts	Posted 05/03/2024 5:12 pm Doug that B on Liberty does kinda look like the 1956-D 1MM-019 Report this Post to the Staff
Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 05/03/2024 7:13 pm The added effort is appreciated. That said I'm afraid I still can not confirm one way or the other. I was thinking it had a chance, but I still can't make out if it has or had a doubled lower serif. Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff
