    Need Help With This 1992 P

    I found this 1992P in a $50 bag (first time I've purchased more than a couple single rolls from the bank). I've gone through several 1992's so far, but this one caught my eye. On the reverse, there seems to be an extra something that runs diagonally from the leg on the left side of the Memorial. It's probably nothing special, but I've not seen it on any of the other 1992's I've seen so far, and I don't see anything listed on CC, VV or Wexler's. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks for looking.

    Thanks Jon. I'm clueless but it sure doesn't seem to be part of the design. Thanks for taking a look!

    I left out the second part, "... none of which will ever be of any importance. "

    Because?? Even a little elucidation would be helpful. Do I need to send you some cookies or something?

    Cookies won't make a dent...
    Well, maybe not normal cookies anyway.

    That may be a DDR similar to Wexlers 001 but I am not 100% sure??? On yours there appears to be a trough running from the shoulder to the end of the anomaly??? Whatever made that trough could have displaced metal???

    Thanks for taking a look, Jim. I see what you're talking about and that makes sense to me. To be honest, though, I'm still having a hard time understanding doubled dies in that area (extra knees, legs, etc) anyway. I'm sure there must be a legitimate and easy-to-understand explanation, but I haven't found it yet. How do you get an extra eyelid without the whole bust being doubled...or an ear? Doubling of just tiny portions of a device, at this point, makes no sense to me. That's why I asked for a little elucidation in an earlier post.
