<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 377740, member: 66&quot;]I wish the ANA guide would cite some specific examples because other than the three I mentioned I am not aware of any other cases where a die exists that was used in an earlier state with no repunching and then in a later state with repunching.</p><p><br /></p><p>Do they say anything about overdates?&nbsp; Many books will say something about how at the end of the year if the obv die was still good or hadn&#039;t worn out they would punch in the new date and keep on using it.&nbsp; And that is completely wrong.&nbsp; In the entire US series, other than the 1806/5 quarter and half that I mentioned, not a single one of the many overdated dies is known to have produced coins in its non overdated earleir year.&nbsp; But the &quot;They punched in a new date and kept going&quot; explaination is still commonly used today.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m not arguing with you, I just suspect the ANA guide is still repeating old outdated information.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
