liberty dollar eisenhower 1972 mint mark

I seldom get a chance to 'play' with Ikes and what I know about them would fit in a thimble:-) Thanks for pointing out the other characteristics of this die variety. On the other, it appears to be in the same position as the first coin but the chip seems to extend onto the the actual letter as well. On one, it appears at the upper left of the O in the field but stops where the O starts. On the reverse, both have the Doubled Islands.īoth have the die break on the O of OF in the place that you describe.

Still the notches are difficult to see because of the later die state but they are there. Also, on both the notches resemble machine doubling damage but an experienced eye would know that they are notches. On one, though you really have to get it at just the right angle to see it because of the later die state. They have the dual date of '1776-1976'.Both coins have the notch on the lower Serif of the B.īoth have notches on the first 1 of the date.
