What is the difference? Dad seems to think the type II and III are valuable. Don't know the grading...but they are clean. Input please.   06-30-2007, 10:24 PM   #2 (permalink) jody526 Sic Semper Tyrannis     Join Date: Jan 2004 Location: Patrick County, Virginia Posts: 3,025 My Mood: Type I features a high center Olympic ring. It also features a normal, strait snake tongue. Type II features a low center ring and a normal snake tongue. http://www.coinpage.com/large.php?tImageId=1537 Type III features a low center ring and a long curved snake tongue. http://www.coinpage.com/large.php?tImageId=1538 I think I have that info right. If not, maybe someone can correct it. It looks like the Type II and Type III are worth more than the Type I, in uncirculated grades, but I would hardly call any of them "valuable".
