<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 2608149, member: 66"]The two coins in the special P & D set are different. They are the high relief design. Once you know what to look for the two styles are easy to tell apart. In the pictures that mynamespat posted the upper on is the high relief and the lower one is the low relief. Point to look at are the temple, the cheek, the neck, and the point of the bust. On the high relief the temple area (above and in front of the ear) is well rounded. On the low relief you can see that it is sunken in. The cheek is similar, rounded on the high relief and well sunken on the low. The neck is once again the same way the whole neck are is a smooth rounded curve from front to back while on the low relief it is sunken with just slightly more relief than the fields. Finally the point of the bust. On the high relief it extends further below the motto and closer to the 0 in the date.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
