drdave Pillar of the Community United States 721 Posts	Posted 05/18/2011 12:57 pm OK - I've got two LWCs from the 1910's. I want to determine if they are 1914 D. I don't think so, but I didn't want to plop them in my pile of old wheats if they were! Any guesses as to the dates? This should be fun. COIN #1: tilted to see it from another angle: COIN #2: Report this Post to the Staff

BuffaloBonehead Valued Member United States 333 Posts	Posted 05/18/2011 1:39 pm I want to say that they both look like 1916 D, but I don't know enough about LWCs to tell you anything beyond looking at the dates. Perhaps there are other cues which show you the date, but I don't know those. Report this Post to the Staff

Meldude Valued Member Canada 162 Posts	Posted 05/18/2011 5:40 pm Yes, 1916s for me Report this Post to the Staff
just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 05/18/2011 6:19 pm That first one really looks like a 19xx to me. Most here say 1916 and before they said that I would have said 1910 but after all the 1916's, I too start to see the 16. MAYBE. Report this Post to the Staff
