<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonnaML, post: 7311708, member: 110350&quot;]PS to [USER=117904]@Ryan McVay[/USER]: many thanks for this persuasive demonstration. It does confirm my initial instinctive impression, immediately upon seeing the second coin as one of the examples on rpc, that the two were the same or almost the same. If the die was, in fact, worked on at some point in between the striking of the two coins, it certainly wouldn&#039;t be the first example I&#039;ve seen of two coins that match each other except for one or more small die alterations. An alteration of a single die makes a lot more practical sense than the idea that even the same engraver could produce two virtually identical dies on two entirely separate, independent occasions. I don&#039;t see how that would be possible.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
