    WAY TOO SHARP on the obverse to be a "no D" 1922 cent. These coins were stuck for dies that were in their terminal state. The light spot under the date is a tell tale sign for those who are not familiar with how the real thing looks.

In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible.

    VAM nailed it. The reverse die cracks are a dead giveaway that it's a 22-D.

    Yep!

    I will be listing various die cracks and other die markers found only on 1922 With D cents in my new book. This will be Die Pair #10.

    yep... 22-D with MM removed. The die cracks and font on the 2nd 2 is wrong too...

    i do look very forward to a more comprehensive approach to the 22-d 1c. the old ones did good getting us here but a new one to take us into the future has been needed for a while.

    is that really a monster radial break on the obv going from the rim to the chin?

    No, that is just a scratch on the coin.
