<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 767158, member: 4552&quot;]Is there some purpose in the size of those letters? </p><p>As to obverse/reverse, there are really lots of reasons for the notice of errors and such. As noted already almost everyone places coins in albums and folders Obverse side up. For some strange reason if you ask people to choose heads or tails in a flip for something, almost all say HEADS. When people look at a coin they almost always look at the obverse to see the date, mint mark, etc. For example on the Wheat back Lincoln Cents. From 09 to 58 the back was always the same so why look? Same with Nickels, Dimes, etc. Not until the State Quarters were the Reverses even considered worth looking at. If you don&#039;t believe me, for those that collect those presidential dollars, quick tell me what is one the reverse of them? Look at a Mercury Dime. Anything different on the reverse to even look at? Even for people that have collected coins for a long time, ask what is the reverse of a Liberty Head Dime look like? Even if the reverse were the same on every coin, it would go unnoticed by most. </p><p>This is why the rotated reverses are so seldom ever noticed. No one really cares.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
