<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Oldhoopster, post: 7440062, member: 84179&quot;]You do understand that the mm was put on the working dies by hand as the last step of the process.&nbsp; If you&#039;re suggesting that the mint used a different hub for each mint and kept the manufacturing process separate, there should be records of it in the mint reports.</p><p><br /></p><p>In order to support a claim like this, doing some research is essential.&nbsp; Many of the mint records are located on the Newman Numismatic Portal.&nbsp; I would suggest spending some time searching there.&nbsp; Measurement data isn&#039;t enough.&nbsp; There are too many variables that can affect the letters like die wear, striking pressure, set up distance between dies, planchet thickness for a start. All of these could affect how the metal flows when the coin is struck.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>BTW:&nbsp; A TPG isn&#039;t going to take your word that the mint was using a production process that&#039;s currently unknown, AND you just happen to have an new error caused by that unknown process, especially when there is a simple explanation (Philly mint). You&#039;re going to need some documentation to get it authenticated.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
