[QUOTE="jeankay, post: 427561, member: 12159"]Looks to me like it could be an early die state. Your coin has two distinct die scratches which are diagonal from close to the D. One going almost to the tail of the 9, and the other is quite short. Unless those are actual scratches in the metal instead of raised like a die scratch would be. Unfortunately there weren't any obverse markers shown to make a comparison. I cannot determine if your coin has a split serif on the upper corner of the mint mark.. or is it a ding or bag mark? The bottom left corner of the D sure does look like it is tripled. The space in the D appears to have straight line in it that looks almost like an edge of a reverse D, or it could be a die scratch.Sometimes it is quite difficult to see markers and such unless one has the coin in hand. I am going to post a fun MM I found a couple weeks ago and finally had it attributed. jeankay[/QUOTE]
