[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 26908, member: 112"]Do I know of it ? No. But I will offer a bit of advice for posting pics. When trying to determine if a coin has strike doubling or is the result of a doubled die - it is extremely important that ALL parts of the letters in the legends can be seen. Notice how when you cropped the pics you cut off the bottom of the letters ? That's a no no. Look at the top of the B - see how there appears to be a slight notch on the left corner ? Well that notch is an indication that the coin is the result of a doubled die. So now you can see why it is important to be able to see the entire letter - all the way around it. I'm not knocking your pics - most folks here do a great job with closeups. But getting too close is as bad as being to far away. Understand ? By the way - it does appear to be a doubled die. And it may be a new variety ;) That I don't know.[/QUOTE]
