Thank you. That was the explanation that I had asked for before.
There are more than two die varieties for this date.

That is very odd. Especially the lower reverse rim. But the coin shows appropriate die wear, and it has been polished. Oversize planchet, maybe?...
All I know about this anomaly is what I have observed when I looked at them, and what I was told when I showed it around when I was 10. When I was...
What I was getting at was that there were probably a few dozen SMS dies per issue at most, and there are hundreds of different variations of these...
Well, all I know is that on EVERY SINGLE ONE I have found and studied, the anomaly was below the surface by a tiny amount. @cpm9ball You have not...
