    RDV-005 or RDV-006?

    Hi everyone! I am wanting everybody's opinion on this. It doesn't matter if you are a novice or a pro, all answers are welcome.

    Which one of these three coins is an RDV-005 (Reverse of 88) and RDV-006 (Reverse of 89)? Please mark your answers as picture 1, 2 or 3: 1 being left-hand picture, 2-middle picture and 3-right-hand picture. Answers can be a combination of more than one picture. Commentary after your answer is encouraged and welcome.

    Thanks in advance for your participation.

          1st pic on left looks like an RDV-006, agree that the other two look like 005 but pics are not good.

              I know the pictures are not professional quality, and I apologize for that, but they are a very accurate representation of how they are seen through the loupe.

              Thanks for your input so far, folks.

                I only mentioned pic quality because I don't want you to think we are making a positive id....it is tough to get good close ups....and pic number two has possibilities of being 006 judging by the position of the F...I just can't see the G well enough

                  It looks as if there is a plating issue on picture number 2 where the G did not stay in place after it was struck.

                    I agree, 006, 005 and 005

                      I thought the pics were pretty clear and the ID's were pretty unmistakable to me. But that's just me.

                          I disagree with the majority. With my secret marker (I ought to trademark that!) as can be seen in the second picture it is...
