[QUOTE="Jimski, post: 2669062, member: 77373"]Thanks for the reply. Attached is a coin from my collection that is a type 3 (1926). On this coin, a part of the 2 is just barely recognizable and the 6 clear. A 1926 SLQ would be type 3. This coin supports postulate 2 (as does the 1929 from my 1st post). Postulate 2 is: on a type 3 SLQ the pedestal will wear out before the date. Note that this coin is type 3, has a date, and has no pedestal. Postulate 2 says that your coin with the 7 showing is a type 3 1927. To convince yourself that postulate 2 and 3 are true or not, - search SLQs on eBay and sort lowest cost first, - select coins where the date is almost worn off but is still recognizable so that you can determine the type. - Do postulates 1 and 2 hold? - Do type 2 SLQs with a nearly worn off date have a clear pedestal? - Do type 3 SLQs with a nearly worn off date have a missing pedestal? Postulate 1: on a type 2 SLQ the date will wear out before the pedestal. Postulate 2: on a type 3 SLQ the pedestal will wear out before the date.[/QUOTE]
