Popular Post J P M Posted January 14, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 14, 2022 Old Hoopster saw this coin and recommended I send this to Cuds On Coins. Today they sent me back a confirmation. They are calling it a Double Spike Head it is now in there Jefferson Nickel Spike Head page. It looks like I got two listings. Hi James, I listed them as SKH-5c-1994P-03 & 04.

Fenntucky Mike Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 That was fast, great find JP! Still amazed at how straight those/that is, wish the portrait wasn't so worn down. Did they really need to add arrows to the images for diagnostics? J P M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya I was wondering if perhaps now that the coin has a reference if NGC would slab it as a Double Spike SKH-5c-1994P-03 & 04.?? Another thing I think is cool is that I am such a nut on saving little errors. I also have a early stage of this Die Break SKH-5c-1994P-02 on that one you can see how the crack was just starting to work its way across the coin Fenntucky Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see the crack going across the portrait now, it's faint, but it's there. It's a large one and I wasn't sure if you could see it going across the portrait as the design, probably, wouldn't have struck up fully in that area and a little wear could have removed evidence of it. I doubt NGC would assign that number to the slab, Cuds on Coins may not be considered as a go to reference for them or they may not acknowledge assigned numbers for die crack, cuds, off center strikes, etc. because they are too minor and there are too many of them. Although they do assign some VAM's. J P M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pictures I originally sent in were the USB scope ones and you cant see the crack going all the way with those shots there is no reflection.
