Merry Christmas Jeff!
The thread title and the comment had me zigging and zagging. Like others, LD variety. The double check to keep in mind when hunting WAMs and...
I will offer that the 11 o’clock and below the bust (5-7 o’clock) have weak details that would support struck through a late stage die cap.

Duped a dime during the photo shoot. [ATTACH]

That’s a fun find right there! I’ve only caught silver Rosie’s.
