Could you explain that statement? I'm a little confused, didn't they put it in directly at the mint? I believe I have one of these sitting in my collection somewhere.

 

It turned in the holder.

 

45 years of vibrations does this to you, look at my avatar, I look a little lopsided now also.
Great looking coin, congratulations!

 

I'm a little slow. Because it was crooked... now I get it.

 

Welcome to the forums, or show, either or will do ..

 

Certainly a promising start.

 

I thought so too .

I see were on the same page .......

 

Just received the coin and it looks like Wexler DDR-013 .
I'll take some images and post them here ....

 

Doesn't look like a Peg Leg, and I think WDDR-013 is a Peg Leg.

 

It is, but no image on wexler site, even the leg on the front of the lower " R " is polished ...

I'll take a image of it ....

 

Deep Cameo too

 

I don't think that qualifies as a peg. It appears to still show a small serif. Could be a shadow trick though I guess

 

Here's the peg legs for the BS & PR for 71-s

Its a straight peg leg ...

 

I'm gonna agree with @Cascade the picture you posted doesn't show any abrading or even a slight curve on the left leg of the R that I can see.

 

You have to measure the length of leg on the back of the "R" . Its a long ways from the top of Ike head and it suppose to be close to the top of Ike head ...

 

Its not suppose too .

Its a " Straight Leg Peg " ..

 

Here's a couple of images of what the " Straight Leg Peg " looks like

 

Yeah I seen the images via the Ike group. The abrasion and curvature is pretty clearly recognizable on those left R legs even with the small pictures imo.
