OldFlabergeezer Valued Member United States 60 Posts	Posted 01/27/2011 1:22 pm Post #5 from that link: Even some experts here were fooled! I thought I had a big winner, but then we looked further and found the FG was wide. I have a 1999 truly Wide AM and when I matched it up, it was not quite the same either. There exists a variation that is a Close AM that resembles a wide at least regarding the AMs, but not the FGs. (if that makes any sense!) I'm not trying to argue, just trying to figure out what's going on here! Report this Post to the Staff
biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 01/27/2011 1:35 pm Any perceived variations are not due to a third design, they would be caused by the strength of hubbing, strength of strike, or level of die polishing. It can only be one or the other, there is no in-between. Report this Post to the Staff
Maineman750 Pillar of the Community United States 3592 Posts	Posted 01/27/2011 4:33 pm I agree with biokemist and I have seen one like in my roll searching, checked the FG, and released it. There are also 1999's with what appear to be Wide AM's that suffer from the same problems.I don't believe there is an in between, just some bad strikes. And flabbergaster, I was teasing Scooby...had nothing to do with your posts Edited by Maineman750 01/27/2011 4:34 pm Report this Post to the Staff
OldFlabergeezer Valued Member United States 60 Posts	Posted 01/27/2011 9:32 pm I don't take anything to serious! I appreciate all of your help... "Any perceived variations are not due to a third design, they would be caused by the strength of hubbing, strength of strike, or level of die polishing. It can only be one or the other, there is no in-between." Is it possible they used 1 hub for parts of the coin and another hub for other parts? When a die is made from a hub, don't they do it in sections or is it all at once that the die is created? Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 01/27/2011 10:16 pm In the 18-19th century this happened. But in the 20th century the dies were complete as the master die was complete except for the mint marks until 1990. after that they are added to the die on the hubs. Report this Post to the Staff
