    This coins seems a bit busy in a good way. There appears to be an overstrike on the surface of the 7, along with a hint of a die clash just under the forehead. On the reverse, not sure if I'm seeing very sharp strike, or a subtle doubling on the arrows. I welcome input. Thanks for your time.

    Something going on with the denticles, 4-7 to the right of the 7. Interesting

    I think that's just the top of the 7. The top of the 7 isn't squared off but is curved like that. Don't know why it's lighter in color.

    The top of the 7 looks like a little physical contact, and the denticles 4-7 also shows up near the IC and there seems to be a rim disturbance near each, so maybe all are from something dinging it? Great photos , but still hard to see depth as in hand.

    Yup, all kinda busy, nothing to hang my hat on. Nothing earth shattering. Pretty solid AU range coin from what I gather from the on-line pic. We'll see when she gets home.

    Nice solid AU coin! The shape on the 7 is generally correct...it may have just taken a soft hit that 'underlines' the curve and makes it look separate. It's hard to tell from pics if the mark in the denticles is raised (ie a mark on the die) or part of that small rim ding under the 7.

    I want to check my 1907 to see if it is 7/7 now. I hope it is.
