[QUOTE="Baltimoron, post: 1953531, member: 71554"]Thanks, Conder101. Here's my comparison of the reverse. The odd angle between the A3 and U that are visible is what I noticed first and made it hard to identify -- it really doesn't seem to match any specific model. Upon further investigation, it looks like it was (at minimum) double struck with rotation, producing that strange offset. Here's the one comparison I did on the reverse, at a first matching angle, overlay at 40% opacity. I'll post another with the rotated position overlayed: [ATTACH=full]342916[/ATTACH] I'll also try to post the comparison of the obverse. I don't believe it is a matron or liberty because it appears to be a right-facing bust -- the verdigris appears to be hair, and the uncorroded spots align with where a right-facing nose would appear. I'll post additional pictures in a few minutes. Just need to save them in a more accessible format than PXD[/QUOTE]
