The idea was to increase the size of the gold without changing the weight. The design failed because the relief of bust of Ms. Liberty was too high, and the coin did not strike well. Note the weakness of the "8" on the coin below, which actually above average. Many pieces have weak dates and the "LL" in "DOLLAR" is often weak. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1501059[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
