cwb1877 Pillar of the Community United States 1659 Posts	Posted 11/30/2010 8:51 pm DV, In addition to the die chip you pointed out, look at the area I circled. Your coin has the same striations as cperry's coin. I'd say there's no doubt these two coins were struck with the same obverse die. Pretty cool! Report this Post to the Staff
KenRingold Pillar of the Community United States 594 Posts	Posted 11/30/2010 9:35 pm I'm going to agree with everyon that it's an AU-55. I pulled mine out and it dosn't have the die chip. Possible error variety? Report this Post to the Staff

oldcoach Valued Member United States 402 Posts	Posted 12/02/2010 08:00 am I got one from the same die also. Just nowhere near the shape these two are. Report this Post to the Staff
robbudo Pillar of the Community United States 2757 Posts	Posted 12/02/2010 11:55 am Good sleuth work! Definitely from the same dies - mostly determined from the die striations, not the die chip on the feather tip (tons from this year have that, at various stages too). There could be a snow variety associated with this specific die chip, but the striations and/or the chip do not constitute an 'error'. Report this Post to the Staff
