Message:: [QUOTE="Conder101, post: 1954435, member: 66"]I think your imagination is having you see things which aren't there. For example in the pictures immediately after my first comment where you are pointing out a lot of "features"  Most of what you ppint out just appears to me to be lumps left from corrosion.  But in the upper right quadrant what you call a period is just a corrosion lump between the legs of the R in AMERICA, the "back of the G" is the back of the C.  Likewise the "top of G" it the top of the C.  The "faint star" is the left upright of the A.  And the "W left leg" is the right leg of the A.  The RICA is clearly visible in the picture. Then when you try to point out the sprig in the center, in order to get it to line up with what you think you are seeing your overlay had the Birch cent in a completely different position than in the previous overlay. I am still not able to make out any features on the obverse.[/QUOTE]
