[QUOTE="sonlarson, post: 2431002, member: 15488"]Not sure this will help or add to the confusion. Apparently 5 different Obverse dies and 6 Reverse dies were used in 1914. KM# are either 643 or 644 with a few not cataloged. Diameter and Silver content also varied along with the die combinations. This information was gathered from 2 Sources but neither mentioned a DDO or DDR variety. I did find a mention on the used of a damaged die on one variety. The Obverse die was damaged. Just a theory, If you have one of the coins struck with the damaged die, it could have caused some mechanical shifting on the reverse. Just speculation. A good photo of the Obverse might allow me to match the die variety. Most are variations of die breaks. Might be able to narrow it down. GB is for Hugh S. Guthrie and Merrill Bothamley.
