The second option would mean that there are indeed 2 obverse dies used that year.</span></span></font></p><p><font face="Tahoma"><span style="font-size: 13px"><span style="color: #454545">On the issue of the reverse dies I have a copy of both reverse dies matted with 1982 obverse dies in my possession. Again it would be a die used from 1971 or 1977 till 1981 and a die issued in 1982. </span></span></font></p><p><font face="Tahoma"><span style="font-size: 13px"><span style="color: #454545">Can you tell me if booth dies were used at all 3 mints as reported in 1982/1983? Also can you tell me what month the dies went from the early 1981 type to the latter 1982 type?</span></span></font></p><p><font face="Tahoma"><span style="font-size: 13px"><span style="color: #454545"> This has been a debate my coin club has wrestled with for sometime and I would like to finally get the true facts on these dies. Any help on the subject would be greatly appreciated up to and including redirecting me to another person or additional notes that you may find on this subject.</span></span></font></p><p><br /></p><p><font face="Tahoma"><span style="font-size: 13px"><span style="color: #454545">Thank You for your time and Help</span></span></font></p><p><font face="Tahoma"><span style="font-size: 13px"><span style="color: #454545">&nbsp; John&nbsp; Miller</span></span></font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
