stmpcol Valued Member United States 223 Posts	Posted 12/18/2006 11:15 am Usually when my Dad had more than 1 coin I could find some kind of variation in them, these 2 I cannot. Anyone else see something? Image: IMG_0307.jpg 61.28 KB Image: IMG_0308.jpg 76.4 KB Image: IMG_0311.jpg 61.63 KB Image: IMG_0313.jpg 61.36 KB Report this Post to the Staff

Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 12/19/2006 02:44 am A slight difference in die alignment, 1st coin has a larger rim on the obverse also and unless you changed the lighting between the two pics, then also a difference in color. Rick Report this Post to the Staff
scoutjim99 Pillar of the Community United States 4589 Posts	Posted 12/19/2006 03:32 am also remember the mintmarks were hand struck then so the placement as well as alignment and Seriff might be different hard to tell need them side by side Edited by scoutjim99 12/19/2006 03:34 am Report this Post to the Staff

coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 12/19/2006 11:15 am All 1972D cents are the same save a master die doubling issue that's worth nothing more than the non-master die doubled coins, and a few doubled dies that can be worth something. Anything regarding hubbing weaknesses or die polishing or weak strikes would be curiosity sake only and have no extra value. This holds true with any cent. Report this Post to the Staff
