[QUOTE="rld14, post: 482148, member: 16133"]I managed to screw up Ruben's topic so I am starting a new one. I mentioned in another topic that I saw this coin... which is a 1918/7-S in MS64FH which is up for sale at the FUN auction. [url]http://coins.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=1121&Lot_No=3807[/url] This is a seriously rare item, especially with full noggin. However, from looking at the few mint states examples that I have seen in person plus as many as I can online, it looks to me like there just might be two dies that created these. Here's what I think is the weaker of the two.. [URL=http://img122.imageshack.us/my.php?image=goodslqodwv5.jpg][IMG]http://img122.imageshack.us/img122/8260/goodslqodwv5.jpg[/IMG][/URL] And here's the better of the two. [URL=http://img122.imageshack.us/my.php?image=badslqodmh8.jpg][IMG]http://img122.imageshack.us/img122/4673/badslqodmh8.jpg[/IMG][/URL] It would be easy to put this down to strike, but these are both from FH coins. Also, look CLOSELY at the position of the mint mark, I do see a difference.[/QUOTE]
