[QUOTE="Pickin and Grinin, post: 2961802, member: 73995"]I live right here in Denver, and the majority of 79D are filled. Let me put it this way, The D had a very shallow post and it was small in diameter, causing it to look like it was filled from the very beginning. Most of the posts broke off by mid die state or before, add some circulation wear to the coin, and walla. You have a filled D. The punch's used to add the MM were old and losing there definition. The 79D below is about mid die state, also I would consider it in au condition. Notice the blob looking D? [ATTACH=full]725035[/ATTACH] Even on the S mm coins (proof) the type 1 S is considered a filled S. versus the type ll, which was a new punch created for the blob looking S mm. So, in all rationalization one would not need to look at all the 79D's to come to the conclusion that most are filled. Let's all do our homework.[/QUOTE]
