<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikediamond, post: 625616, member: 1859&quot;]I can&#039;t decide if these are conjoined dropped letters or contact marks from another coin.&nbsp; Contact marks are usually strongest on the rim, since this is the area most vulnerable to contact damage.&nbsp; The fact that the letters are strongest in the field is consistent with a dropped filling.&nbsp; However, since we&#039;re dealing with two adjacent letters properly spaced, there should have been a least a little bit of intervening die fill which would have left a shallow depression connecting the two letters.&nbsp; Since the field is unmarked between the letters, this would be consistent with contact marks.&nbsp; A toss-up.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
