<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 3594747, member: 15199"]The trouble of trying to identify from a picture is you can't angle it and see how high the extra portion is , and unless evenly lighted, the other areas. Also ( and if you are aware of this, I apologize) there are 8 classes of DD, and this ( post 5) appears to be a type VIII, tilted hub, so there would be an gradual angular difference to the height rather than same degree of flatness. It appears the top part of the area of discussion is higher closer to the end of the base of the 2 than on the left. Maybe that is why one like 1972-DDO-009 is a minor DDO, IMO, and the pricing reflects such. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Here is an image of a mintmark on one of my 1970S cents.....no RPM, all mechanical doubling, so it can be extreme <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Jim[ATTACH=full]960991[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
