The 3 in the date has extra width at the tail. Is this normal. Also the E in WE has the ski slope look. Opinion's are welcome for I don't know if this is normal. It is probably a normal coin but I wanted to ask.

David

The coin you show David is normal. However, the areas you point out are very important in identifying varieties for this year. There are varieties with extra thickness on the 3 of the date. Notching on the R of TRUST is also another pick-up-point for some of the lesser varieties. Take a look at some of the examples we have on the site, and you can see what I am referring to....OK??

Die cleaning on the fields near the devices will make the devices appear shallow. But the when the field is reduced/removed that makes the area strike closer to the devices, thus appearing not as large.
