John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 02/28/2011 2:18 pm I think this was covered awhile back but could not find the post,sorry. There is a wider then normal gap between the letters and the rim.What would this be called? Any known value? Error or variety or nothin'? Thanks for all the help, John1 Report this Post to the Staff

Scooby Due Pillar of the Community United States 4000 Posts	Posted 02/28/2011 2:57 pm Interesting. I see the gap you are talking about and it does seem to be a little further from the rim than normal. Is the rim higher than normal? What about the other side? I'm sure the pros will slap us both around soon, but inquiring minds want to know! Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 02/28/2011 5:13 pm I did check four others, non had as much of a gap. The gap is widest by UNITED but there is a gap all the way around. The other side is normal. The rim is not any higher then normal. Thanks for the responses. John1 Edited by John1 02/28/2011 5:13 pm Report this Post to the Staff
