<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Publius2, post: 13261794, member: 105571&quot;]This is the latest acquisition, an 1830 LM-1.2 remarriage in a Middle Die State.&nbsp; I already had an early die state example of this remarriage which is the fourth use of the reverse die.&nbsp; In the late die state condition, a cud develops through ERI and another one at the top of A2.&nbsp; You can see in this coin that those die cracks are developing and growing but not yet at the cud stage.&nbsp; My addiction went from a Red Book set of Capped Bust Half Dimes - to a collection by die marriages - and now to die states.&nbsp; I probably need an intervention.</p><p><br /></p><p>BTW, that weakness at the left of shield and the eagle&#039;s neck and wing is due to die bulging, not wear or a weak strike.&nbsp; They were getting all the use out of these dies possible.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1529578[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1529579[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1529580[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
