bobh New Member Switzerland 46 Posts	Posted 05/14/2025 05:59 am I have examined several hi-res pictures on the Heritage site, but having difficulty pinning down the specific elements to look for in distinguishing the D/D from the regular strike. Is there anything except for the mintmark (die clashes, die cracks, etc.) which might help? That "D" is so darn small! Report this Post to the Staff

bobh New Member Switzerland 46 Posts	Posted 05/14/2025 6:05 pm Thanks ... this site helps a lot! For some reason I had to go to the main page and type in the rest of the URL manually before I could get it to open. I think they have some problems with SSL encryption configuration: their main page seems to use https, but some of the subpages do not. Report this Post to the Staff
