ADC-1c-1960D-86(SD) Stages “A” and B”

A clash line, from the bottom of Lincoln’s bust can be seen across the tops of the letters in STATES

The image on the left shows the beginning formation of a die chip; this is stage “A”. The image to the right shows a developing die chip and is stage “B”

There are many diagonal die scratches through the date, more than likely to remove another die clash event.
