<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 233652, member: 66"]Showing bits and pieces is OK but it would also help to have large pictures of both sides of the coin in question. From just looking at the little bits so far I'm coming up with O-108. The first thing I look at is the position of the I below the T in STATES. On your coin it is pretty much centered below the edge of the left foot of the T. That pretty well matches 106, 108, & 109. To a lesser extent, 101. The next thing is the branch stem over the C. On yours it is between the inner curve of the C and the center of the C. That eliminates 106, where it is past the center. On 109 it is just slightly past the inner curve and the 5 is too low. That leaves 108 and 101. On 101 the top of the 0 is noticably lower than the top of the 5. That isn't the case with your coin. That leaves 108. Without better pictures, I haven't been able to see anything that would eliminate 108.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
