<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jupiter88, post: 2714738, member: 75512&quot;]Hi, I wasn&#039;t thinking there was a mint mark, but thank you for your info <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; The obverse 1 is a solid 1 in the date, I attached a pic of my favorite 1924 Peace dollar for reference (the 4 is aligned right when compared with the designer initials above it, whereas the 1 in the 21 is aligned more even with the initials above). It&#039;s a good point to make sure and verify though, so thank you. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]613754[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>What&#039;s strange with this one, is that the obverse appears to reflect a high relief design but with a low relief reverse?&nbsp; The obverse is high relief based on the ray count in the coronet, the thickness of the rays and the positioning of the ray at the E, the R&#039;s have straighter tails, and the 2 has the look of a 21 high relief.&nbsp; Here is an obverse photo of my sharpest 1921 high relief for comparison.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]613756[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>The reverse appears to reflect the B2 low relief design vs. a 1921 high relief design.&nbsp; Some of the differences are, it has 3 mountains, 4 berries, no details on the eagles claw, a missing tail feather ray and only 3 rays below the &quot;one&quot;.&nbsp; It also has longer rays at the top near the eagles head and some ray discrepancies below the eagle.&nbsp; Here is a photo&nbsp; of one of my 1922-P&#039;s, showing the B2 reverse low relief design for comparison.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]613757[/ATTACH]</p><p>A 1921 high relief should reflect the &quot;A&quot; reverse, whereas this one doesn&#039;t.&nbsp; This will most likely result in the coin being a fraud as the probability of this happening, would be extremely rare and wouldn&#039;t make sense most likely per any mint records (I&#039;m guessing here, but trying to be logical).&nbsp; I attached the matching &quot;A&quot; reverse to the 1921 above for comparison.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]613758[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>I mapped the differences out below for reference.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]613761[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]613760[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
