[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 1948322, member: 15929"]From what I understand, the US Mint is a fully operational CNC Shop which to me means that any illustration you see which is provided by the US Mint is exactly what you are going to get as the "hubs" are machined from the images. Die variations such as doubling, grease filling, wear and machine damage will create some varieties but all in all, what you've seen will be what you get. Most notably, the portrait of Kennedy will be noticeably larger than the common circulation quality issues. That Portrait Size was reduced in 1995 with further reductions in 2000. [ATTACH=full]339613[/ATTACH] I included the gold coin on both ends but for whatever reasons, PS Elements darkened the image to the far right. Notice how low the portrait goes on the 2014 Gold Coin and the 1964 Coin vs, the 1995 and 2000 coins. I'm really looking forward to all the different versions which will be offered.[/QUOTE]
