ASometimes New Member United States 47 Posts	Posted 10/20/2024 3:14 pm Hi! I wanted to see if yall could help me identify the reverse of this bicentennial coin. Would it be considered a Type-1 or Type-2? I'm leaning towards type-2, but again I'll take better opinions for the experts! Thank you for any help or guidance you may provide!

This example looks polished or plated. Coin Collector Since 1978 Avatar Old Avatar 7070 Eisenhower Australia Canada World CCF Members on eBay CCF eBay Search Engine Report this Post to the Staff

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6498 Posts	Posted 10/21/2024 4:42 pm I prefer RDV-005 because that makes me look mysterious! =P There's not much mistaking Type/Variety 1 and 2. Type 1 has ginormous 1970s block letters, and Type 2 has thinner, normal text letters. http://www.varietyvista.com/13%20Ei...arieties.htm https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin...-1-type/7418 That PCGS page has a good side-by-side visual comparison.
