<p>[QUOTE=&quot;messydesk, post: 3620141, member: 1765&quot;]Long answer: 1968 was the last year the hub of 1918 was used, and had accumulated 50 years of wear from being cast back and forth from working hub to master die each year.&nbsp; In 1969 they reworked the hub to strengthen the detail, and then started lowering the relief in the 80s.&nbsp; In 2010, they raised the relief a bit to more resemble the original, but the level of detail is not as sharp as it was in 1918 and earlier.&nbsp; It&#039;s more like the coins of the 1930s.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
