[QUOTE="John Burgess, post: 5637442, member: 105098"]these are the greatest design differences for comparison and identification. Reverse Design variety RDV-006. "Wide AM" reverse and the normal reverse for 1989-1992. [ATTACH=full]1242258[/ATTACH] Reverse Design Variety RDV-007. This is the "Close AM" and the normal reverse for 1993-2008. [ATTACH=full]1242259[/ATTACH] For RVD-006 you can use any reverse example of 1989-1991 for comparison For RVD-007 you can use an example of 1993-2008 (except for 1998, 1999, 2000 which might be the "Wide AM" which is RDV-006). I don't know of a better way to explain this, this is the key to both the '92 Close AM, and the '98, '99, and 2000 Wide AM. In my Opinion, the FG is the dead giveaway on which reverse it is. it's distance from the memorial, the stem and seriff, the circular curve on RDV-006 vs the almost backwards looking D of the G on RDV-007. Due to die deterioration and contact marks, the AM placement can spread or be pushed closer together, I feel like it's a good first step at identifying needing to take a closer look, but the FG location and "G" font is the confirming point.[/QUOTE]
