<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Valentinian, post: 2446389, member: 44316&quot;]Here is one possibility. Maybe the OP monogram coin was severely tooled, that is, carved, and then repatinated. The depth of the &quot;T&quot;, &quot;S&quot; and monogram in general is unusually great. In contrast, the obverse strike is not deep at all, which leads me to believe the OP coin current monogram was cut, or recut, recently (perhaps just in an attempt to remove corrosion). So, I think it is tooled enough that we cannot know the original monogram with certainty.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
