[QUOTE="crypto79, post: 2561640, member: 24254"]I'll answer best I can 1) yes the small wide CC die (1.2mm) was used repeatedly over 73-76 and is in fact the same die as verified by specific die markers. It is visually different from all the rest and is unusual being used over 4 years. There is a lot of Mint mark variance in the series so I really only focus on the ones that naked eye pop out at you and have a common thread. Those being the 1.2mm wide, the dime punch micro S from 75-77 and the 3 different type 1/1 76cc dies that are all very different. 2)there is a predominate die scratch in the denticls at 12oclock above the E&S of states. 3)there is a lot of different placement and punches. Most people don't care about them all and just try to mix their set up a little. there are not many that collect trade dollars down to that level. 4)yes there has been multiple articles on the 1.2 in the LSCC. There is Joe K's set which is far and away the number one variety set and he is working on a book which is many years in the making. I have a reference showcase which is complete from my perspective with all the naked eye varieties to include all of the DDR, DDOs, RPDs, die damage and major hub types.
