Just seeing this thread. Congrats on your discovery of a new variety. Definitely a DDR with thickness and very light notching on the initials....
Thanks Conder. They got me! My apologies everyone. (I messed that one up. :banghead:) Here it is. The American Numismatic Association Charitable...
I agree with a scratch. There is a pressure ridge on each side of the incuse/recessed part. Similar to a plow pushing up dirt as it moves through...
The last paragraph of the article states that ANA members will be able to acquire deaccessioned objects at a discounted rate as a benefit of...

Yakpoo and JimDale bring up very important points most of us don't have to consider. The way to thank her is to not put her in a possibly...
Accept my apologies for the misunderstanding I caused because I find myself looking for the same things in coins. My bad for the misunderstanding...
