No problem. Varieties are my favorite

 

I don't know about those two scottishmoney coins coming from the same die, not in either possible order. The lost area from the first strike would have had to have gotten longer and thinner to have struck the second. There are also a few other PUP's that also suggest different dies.

I'd like to see them up close and study them.

The second/right coin looks to be an earlier die state from the blurry out of focus pic. Maybe it's just hasn't been circulated as much.

 

Extremely late die state.

 

In fact here are some varieties I myself just discovered and got listed.

5th and 6th coins on this page:

I think they are from the same die. Both were discovered by Fred Weinberg.

His on the left is
CU-5c-1983P-02

On the right looks like later die state of
CU-5c-1983P-15B

Again, if the right is later die state, the damaged area of the die shrunk. I don't think so.

The one on the right equally isn't earlier for the same reason which would then apply to the left cud dimensions.

So, respectfully, I disagree these two came from the same die for reasons which are obvious.

 

Oh I see that now. Good catch. Nonetheless still two nice cuds. I should've realized that the one on the right is a stage B variety (meaning stage B of a cud). But its not the stage B of his on the left or else the one on the left would have an A designation.

 

Are we in agreement that those two didn't come from the same die?
Your answer is a bit ambiguous.

 

Yes. If the one on the left was from the same die it would be listed with an A designation.

 

Great, just checking to make sure the cheese hasn't completely slid off my cracker. Thanks.
