<p>[QUOTE="HandsomeToad, post: 531384, member: 12965"]I reduced the original pic (1898-O) down to the same size as the 1893-O and circled just 3 identical marks as the 1898-O to show they are one in the same, besides the fact you can see the 3 has been tooled. Plus, someone said something about marks on the 1893-O that weren't on the 1898-O? Marks can easily occur during the tooling process (accident) but it's hard to remove marks, so the proper way to compare the two is to find identical marks from the supposed original coin that are on the 2nd coin, not the other way around. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p> </p><p>Ribbit <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p> </p><p>Ps: I added a 1893-O & 1898-O obverse pic for comparison purposes. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
