Which I think.... solves the riddle... it is consistent with the rest of the brockage that it is where it is!
@cpm9ball The plot thickens.... I ran with your idea.... I sorted out there is a difference between the Lyon and the Strausbourg mints obverse of...
because it is not an A, look closely, it is not an A. Hair details to the right (side of what appears as the A) may make it look like an A, but...
Also recall Chris.... you are seeing this in "negative" as this is a broackage....
Hi Chris Thanks for taking a look. Yes, I too am confused... I was guessing it was the right hand part of the U in LOUIS..... maybe there is more...

@Fred Weinberg Thanks, that is what I thought. I submitted it to NGC saying it was but they said it was not. To me, the guy must have been on...
