MintPenny Valued Member United States 74 Posts	Posted 12/16/2024 6:35 pm Thanks for the input. Can you explain about the denticles? I was trying to align them with the photo of the actual one on PCGS but was having a hard time. The 1 is to the right of the denticle below it. The first 8 is a little to the right and the other two seem to align right with the denticles below. Thank you for any clarification you can provide. Report this Post to the Staff

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 12/18/2024 7:16 pm Not the 1888/7. On S-1 the rightmost base of the 1 is higher than the bottom left of the 1st 8 in the date. If you draw a straight line across the bottom of the 1st 8, the 1 will be noticeably further away from that line on S-1.
