[QUOTE="Marshall, post: 8168242, member: 21705"]This makes sense if the records indicate the sharp N reverse was made after or contemporaneous with the elimination of the VDB. By 1909, records about the timing of changes to the design are much better. As usual, when I venture out of my safe space, something as simple as which N is being discussed Obv (U)N(UM, Rev (U)N(ITED), (O)N(E) or (CE)N(T) exposes my ignorance. Photo and Transfer dies appear to be ruled out as the source "coin" since the question is about the inconsistency of an individual reverse die. ie could there be a sharp N VDB die produced at the mint, even if unknown. It's a slightly different focus than a Mule pairing of known dies.[/QUOTE]
